Hi, I’m Dr. Maja! Read my introduction to larn much astir maine and my 3 dogs, Lava, Hela, and Lajka.

Having 3 dogs, who’ve not known each different since a young age, means being a spot much cautious and insightful astir feeding times. Luckily, they are beauteous bully erstwhile it comes to respecting each other’s privateness portion eating, and determination is an established hierarchy based connected their emotion for food. There is besides a antithetic attack based connected whether they are being fed wrong oregon outside.

Lava Is Always Special

Lava has a unusual personality. Don’t get maine wrong, she loves food, but usually and mostly erstwhile that nutrient is connected my plate. She’d termination for a wound of array scraps, contempt maine ne'er giving her anything. As soon arsenic I’m making thing oregon getting acceptable to eat, determination she is, determination adjacent by, but not excessively close, truthful I wouldn’t recognize she is there. As if I could miss a 77-lb canine adjacent to my feet.

When it comes to her food, Lava often needs persuading to eat. She’s been a picky eater since she was a puppy. This has somewhat improved since she gained 2 sisters she ne'er asked for, who are present ever impatient to cleanable up her nutrient vessel aft she’s done eating. Lava is besides a dilatory eater, and requires her ain privateness erstwhile she eats. Despite nary 1 truly trying to bargain her food, determination volition beryllium a debased growl adjacent if determination is conscionable a feline a fewer feet distant cleaning themselves, ignoring Lava’s dinner. That’s why, erstwhile inside, Lava eats successful the downstairs toilet, arsenic the surviving country and room are 1 room. This gives her privacy, and nary 1 tin disturb her. And erstwhile eating outside, I request to supervise the different 2 truthful they don’t annoy Lava, who finishes last, cherishing each bite, arsenic if to spite the different 2 who finished their nutrient much quickly.

Hela Is a Foodie

Hela, owed to her history of near-starvation successful Greece, is simply a large foodie. This tin beryllium her adust food, bedewed canned food, treats, oregon quality food, and she volition besides edifice to eating insects and tiny rodents she finds and catches outside. It’s absorbing to spot that adjacent aft astir 2 years of having a accordant regular erstwhile it comes to mealtimes, she inactive tries to find things to devour outside. There person been galore times erstwhile I had to effort and region thing stinky and rotten from her mouth, which she’s not truthful tolerant of.

And Hela is similar clockwork. If I slumber successful oregon travel location late, she volition beryllium the 1 to intelligibly amusement maine it’s good past meal oregon meal time, by sitting close adjacent to me, wagging her process intensely, and having this persistent stare. She whitethorn adjacent locomotion implicit to wherever the nutrient is oregon casually inspect the cats’ nutrient bowls. Hela eats archetypal erstwhile they’re being fed wrong and past erstwhile outside. This lone means her nutrient vessel reaches her astir 20 seconds aboriginal than the archetypal dog, but to her, it indispensable look similar an eternity. She is simply a accelerated eater, and astatine times, I use a dilatory feeder to dilatory her down a bit. After she finishes, she volition cleanable the different dogs’ bowls until they are spotless.

Lajka Is Not a Morning “Person”

And the newest addition, well, arsenic you could person guessed, besides loves food. Not knowing her history, it’s hard to adjacent conjecture the mode she lived, but based connected her likewise gross habits to Hela’s of eating each sorts, it’s wide she hadn’t been fed excessively regularly. She loves everything I springiness her and volition ne'er permission thing behind, dissimilar Lava, but successful the morning, she volition not beryllium super insistent connected asking for food. She volition devour her breakfast, but slowly. When fed inside, she eats successful her crate and volition unreserved inside, knowing nutrient is coming. Outside, she is the archetypal to get fed, arsenic she follows maine astir truthful intently that it lone makes consciousness that she eats first.

She besides respects Hela and Lava and volition lone attack some erstwhile they’re done eating, successful the anticipation that thing got missed successful oregon astir the nutrient bowl. It’s bully to spot however the mealtimes are rather calm and look to flow, and to extracurricular observers, it indispensable look similar a well-rehearsed play. Of course, it took america plentifulness of clip to find what works best.
