My dog is 10 and I've had her since she's been 8 weeks old, so I know
there's no food aggression at all. ONE TIME I brought her home some
chicken from a restaurant and while she was eating it my cat came over
to sniff and she growled at my cat.

Some of their behaviors are so funny. I wonder what goes through their
minds??

Dogs are great aren't they!!
My dog does that too! After she eats her dinner she runs into my bedroom
and rubs her face and her body against my bed and then she runs into my
living room and rubs her face against my couch.

Glad to see your dog doesn't have any signs of food-guarding
Angus doesn't either and still runs off with his yummies, not always to the same place, tho.
The other thing that my two do is to immediately check out each other's food bowls - every time, before they even take a mouthful out of their own! They are fed in seperate areas but have access to each other as they don't have a problem with food-guarding. It's like little kids looking to see what their mates have in their lunch-boxes, LOL!

Moses always takes food to his bed to eat, the others just open and swallow!!!! Spring always wipes her face on the sofa though Dillan used to get quite upset over his mucky chops so ziggie started washing his face for him (when they were puppies awwwww) now they finish eating spring roles about on the sofa and Dill and Moses both sit infront of ziggie so he can clean them up! (must take some photo's).

Yep. My dog does this with treats too. She also does a similar thing with her dried food. She'll shovel up as much as she can into her mouth then carry it somewhere else, spit it all out on the floor then lie down and eat it there at her leisure.

I think it stems back to when I had two dogs. The other one was dominant to her and would always push in front of her when she started eating to see if she had anything nicer in her bowl than he had! As soon as he did this she'd go and start on his bowl, only to have him come back to his original bowl and interrupt her again! So she had to eat quick if she didn't want to be interrupted. He died over a year ago but she obviously still thinks she's going to have her feeding disturbed, poor thing. She doesn't seem to have any food-guarding tendancies though luckily. (sock-guarding tendancies however...)

My Lily does this with her Burns!!!!! No wonder she's so slim, she takes each piece of Burns into the living room eats it on the rug then goes back out to the kitchen for another piece.......I've tried putting her dish in the living room, but she does it the other way round.....lol.
