Does your dog turn over its food bowls?

Ours doesn't. But if she has a special treat in her bowl she'll sit there and makes sure she gets every speck, licking the bowl clean. This makes the bowl move, so by the time she's done it's usually halfway across the room! Birds often turn their dishes over - usually when empty. But we've had a couple that will dump the dish and then eat off the floor.

Hello, fjgamer. Yes, my dog turns his bowl. You put food, and if he is not hungry he will try to turn it and hide the food underneath the carpet. It's really sad, because I have to get all his food after he drops them on the floor. My mother gets angry and yells at me, because I was not paying attention at the time, hahaha. Respectfully, Munhozmib.

Ever since we aquired our rescue labrador he has done this. As soon as he has finished eating he will do it. Its like a ritual, marking the end of his meal blessed be

She doesn't anymore, she used to when she was a puppy. And then she would play with it, slidding it across the floor and barking at it, it was a metal one so it slid easily. We used to call it 'bowl hockey', because she looked like she was playing hockey with it, maybe because her 'daddy' watches the flyers so much! LOL

Years ago our other dogs used to do this when they didn't want to eat their food. Our newer dogs haven't yet probably because they'll eat anything, lol. It's usually a sign when a dog doesn't particularly care for what you put in front of them.

Yes he does it every time. It can be full and he will use his little paw to keep pulling to gets it pulled over then he eats or drinks. I just thought he was weird.

My female doesn't. She'll nose it around the room and hide it but she doesnt tip the dishes. My male dog will tip the dishes over. He'll also pick them up and carry them around until the cats give up trying to get some food from the dish.
