Exactly. My pups don't have food just sitting out all day. They get fed twice a day (morning and night) and I watch them to make sure they ONLY eat their own food. If they do not finish it all (haha, as if they would leave anything) then I would put it back for the next day. This way I can also monitor how much and when they eat, so if they ever have any problems that I need to talk to the vet about I'll have more of an idea and know if they're not eating, etc.
