My kitchen is roughly 15'x14'. I feed Meg under the window, near to the NE corner. Coop gets fed at the back door, near to the SW corner. This is done not because they fight but because they'll sometimes give up dinners to the friend. They both get different meds in their dinners, so I need to make sure they only eat their own. That and it is portioned for their weight.
Meg gets fed first in the doggie hierarchy. Coop gets fed a little over an ounce more than Meg. But Meg is more ladylike in her dining habits so Coop usually finishes first. I'm where I can see both and stop shenanigans. So whoever finishes first (and that is sometimes Meg) waits patiently until the other finishes. Then they do a pas de deux, and actually avoid looking at each other ... and me for that matter. This is done to see if the other left ANYTHING in their bowl. Of course neither has: why leave anything to go check and see if the OTHER guy left something. Every time this is done. I suppose hope springs eternal!
