We were up at the cottage with one of his cousins and Lucas is chowing down on dog food again. Yes it is completely gross but I actually can't physically stop him from doing it
Really -- don't worry about the dog food, especially if it is dry kibble. After all, it promotes a healthy immune system, helps provide a shiny coat and also builds strong teeth & bones! Some of the fancier varieties even include DHA supplements, guaranteed to add a few points to his scores!
But for the water dish, we just put out a second, LARGER (& spill proof) bowl that was purely for playtime, and explained that DC's bowl belonged to him.
That actually worked. The grandparents were never too thrilled, but c'est la vie, no?
