The last two days I have given the boys (10yr westie, 7mth staffy) a raw chicken wing.
I always feed them seperately because the Staff would ganet the Westie's food in 2 seconds flat (the Westie is a reluctant eater).
Well, it turns out that the Westie is not reluctant about chicken wings. But this morning, they weren't seperated as I thought, so I had to try and seperate them with 2 wings in my hand. The Westie snapped at the Staffy quite aggressively (no biting, just deep growling and grabbed his neck).
I thought perhaps he thought the Staffie would take his food.
This evening though, after they'd both finished, and were allowed together again, the Westie again snapped at the Staffy.
Is that normal? Should I be concerned? Should I revert to kibble?
