My last golden, Camber ate her food sometime during the night. Put food in her bowl in the morning and it would still be there when I went to bed. Next morning, empty bowl. Either she was eating it at night or there are gnomes with pets. Or maybe she just liked day old food.

My first golden only ate after I ate. I would give her the last bite of whatever I was eating, then she would eat her dog food. However, she did not empty the bowl. If her food bowl got to where you could see the bottom, even if it was just a small spot in the middle, she would bark for more food. Put food in so you could no longer see the bottom of the bowl and she was happy. And most times wouldn't even eat any more. She just always wanted food in her bowl. She was pretty smart.

Pepper is a glutton, she will eat all of whatever I put out. Feed her when I eat. Part of preparing a meal is putting food out. She has good manners and waits until I start eating before she starts. Part of managing my blood sugar is eating at the same times every day. She helps by either waking me in the mornings, or getting my attention while I'm working. When it is time to eat, she brings me her frisbee.
