another update on Bo and Ritter
I've noticed that Bo has a big appetite and even eats more than Ritter sometimes haha :) He likes eating from Ritter's food bowl and he drinks from Ritter's water bowl but Ritter doesn't seem to mind. I think he likes Ritter's food better but Ritter's food is Holistic for adult dogs while Bo's is Holistic puppies. I also noticed that if Bo doesn't see Ritter's food, he eats his own food. So that usually happens in the morning coz Bo wakes up earlier than Ritter so I give Bo his food first.
Anyway, Ritter and Bo got into two fights this Sunday... The first fight happened when my sister was giving Ritter a piece of chicken. It fell to the floor so Bo attempted to grab it. Unexpectedly, Ritter got mad so the two dogs fought. I was kind of hoping that Bo would learn not to grab food from Ritter anymore but Bo still eats from Ritter's food bowl and still attempts to grab food from Ritter when someone gives him food haha :P Now, we make it a point to give Ritter food first (if we're giving it using our hands) before Bo coz we want Bo to know that Ritter's the alpha dog.
The other fight they got into was not over food...Bo was biting his blankie when Ritter decided that he wanted to play so Ritter was sort of scratching Bo's tummy which (I think) means that he wanted Bo to play with him. Bo got mad coz he wanted to just nibble on his blankie so they got into a fight again! Luckily, it just lasted for a few seconds and they were both okay. After that, they were friends again :)
