"Did you feed the dog" chart - Catherine - 07-30-2021
Someone has come up with a dog feeding chart that would work for a busy, multi person household. When the dog is fed, you you mark it as fed for that day and time. Someone else in the family knows at a glance that the dog has been fed. It does prevent the dog from getting extra feedings. Lots of dogs are good at pretending they haven't eaten yet.

Most pets are good at pretending they haven't been fed. It doesn't always matter if they get an extra feeding. For some dogs this can be a problem. They put on weight that is bad for their health because they get extra meals they don't need. Keeping a dog on a careful feeding schedule is better. You don't want to miss meals and you don't want there to be extra meals.
Any kind of chart would work, but this one is reusable week after week. It would answer the question "Has the dog been fed".
