How do you managing different meals/treats between different dogs?
When watching dogs by different owners at the same time, I find if one dog gets fed dry and the other wet, the dog with dry loses all interest in their food. I know the smell of wet is overpowering and have tried feeding them in separate parts of the house. That hasn't worked - neither does feeding them at different times. The same thing happens with treats. If one owner brings treats and the other doesn't, I'll give both dogs the treat. Customers usually just provide feeding schedule and quantity but they don't get specific about strict adherance standards. I've made in-the-moment decisions (as you can't always get the owner to respond right away) like adding broth, stealing a bit of the wet and flavoring the dry, etc to make sure a dog doesn't go hungry but perhaps this isn't the best approach.
How do others handle this?
Thanks
I have some clients whose dog(s) have specific meal times and others whose dog(s) don’t either way I keep the dogs in separate rooms during meal times to prevent any fighting.
