Resource Guarding First, feed them in separate rooms temporarily to prevent fights. The ultimate goal is to convince the dog that they have plenty, and thus, don't need to guard their bowl. Another way to address resource guarding is to remove your dog's food in the middle of their meal.
Should you feed your dogs next to each other?
Feed both dogs at the same time of day, but still cater to the alpha dog of the two (or more), by putting its food down first. As long as both dogs eat the same food, and will finish their meal all at once, there shouldn't be any problems.
Should dogs eat all their food at once?
The number of meals a dog eats per day depends completely on the family schedule. Dogs should eat at least two meals each day, about 12 hours apart. But a breakfast, lunch, and dinner schedule is an equally great option. If more than 12 hours elapses between meals, the stomach can become hyperacidic causing nausea.
