My only problem with that
idea is that I have to remove it during the day, or one of my goats will eat it
all. She's locked up at night, and the dogs get to eat in
peace.
Tom how about one of those big round basins that look like a wash tub you
could put a stake in the ground and use a threaded U bolt through the handle
so they cant drag it off or tip it.I'm a jack of all trades but a master of
none .But it might work

I learn every day from this group! I haven't had this
problem, but will keep an eye on my dogs.
Want to hear a bad mama
story? I had put a Blitz "demand" feeder in the field with the
goats and dogs with good quality food for my Pyr puppies. The male has a
St. Bernard-like head (won't win any conformation prizes) and is tall and
long. I worried about him, wanting to make sure he got enough food,
because he seemed to be losing weight. It took me a week to
realize that his head had grown enough that he couldn't get it in the
feeder door. I felt REALLY bad!
I've used steel bowls, but haven't
found any that were heavy or inconvenient enough to keep the female from
picking it up, food and all, and running around with it. Right now,
I'm using a container that's intended to hold a 50-pound salt
block. The female still takes it away, but it's a
little harder. Ideas?
