You have a strange dog, the one pearl in the oysters type. :P

Feed him on a plate in fact, might as well set him a place at the table! Dog is god spelt backwards after all :)

If its a silver, metallic one try switching it, with something that won't cast a reflection. Had the same problem with my dog, he got afraid from the sunlight hitting the bowl and beaming off a reflection on the wall. No, my dog isn't a tiny dog. They just see things differently.

Fill it with bacon . The real problem is that your dog realized that it was eating shitty , dry dog biscuits when instead it could have been devouring delicious human food. The barking is just to get your attention

I guess you'll have to use a plate from now on lol!

I like your dog.

Is his food bowl somewhat reflective? My dog did the same thing for awhile because she could see her own reflection! Poor thing!

There's so many possibilities. Maybe a clumsy owner or the dog stepped on the empty bowl and went skidding across the floor? Maybe the bowl is really a tiger in disguise and the owner hasn't figured it out yet? Maybe the dog is terrified of bowls after an angry ex threw a bowl in the general area of the dog?

Probably a ghost in your kitchen that only your dog can see. Time to move.

weird but maybe he'll get used to it? my dog used to be scared of our new kitchen floor but now he runs across it like its nothing
