Removing All Day Food

[Paptacular!]

My household is guilty of leaving a bowl of biscuits down all day.

I've been wanting to stop it, but my parents throw every argument under the sun that they need them.

Under instruction from my breeder I was told to enforce it, so this week we trialled it.

I've trialled feeding biscuits at breakfast and their usual wet food/diced mince at night. In the morning they won't touch the food so it gets taken away.

Night time they eat as normal.

Until the past 2 days, where Blaze has gobbled down his dinner and thrown it all up, last night and tonight. They were still not interested in breakfast.

What's the best way to remove 'all day' food and have 2 set meal times?

Also, Portia and I went on a trip to Vic last week and she has gone a bit off her food and vomiting, both food and froth if she's had an empty tummy. Yesterday she had an anti-nausea needle and no vomit, but vomit today, and she didn't eat much. Little worried about her, though yesterday the vet didn't find anything physically wrong (no fever, no tight abdomen etc).

Unless they have bad teeth or something- give them their meat on the bone ... if they have to take time to chew up a whole chicken wing ..or some lamb flab or roo tail ..there is less likelihood of gulp/regurgitate syndrome.

It does sound as if they have a bug though....

Portia may have a bug, don't know about Blaze.

He does have a tendency to gobble and not chew.
