Dog Food Obsession

This is what Sydney's water looks like these days.
Alex's latest obsession is Sydney and her food. He loves to watch her eat, help her eat and eat her food himself. We thought giving him the job of feeding her might teach a him little responsibility, help with hand eye coordination, and help Jay and I remember to feed her. He certainly reminds us every morning about his job. He is very good at pouring the food into her dish but still needs some assistance scooping it up. He hovers over her while she eats and sometimes helps himself. Today I tried to get the morsels out of his mouth and he just about bit my finger off. He had to go to the naughty chair for that one. He also loves the idea of giving Sydney treats. I say the idea of it because he tends to hang onto the treat for half the morning before Syndey actually receives it. It doesn't seem to bother the dog much as she is used to his ways by now.
