Hi Dreamsandlove, no not the only room, I have always fed my dogs in separate rooms, basically because he was a gutsy gannet when he was young and would eat his food then make a beeline for the Shepherds grub, he won't go into the lounge where he is normally fed, I have to feed him in the hallway where is is also sleeping at the moment, he has always been a little eccentric, he has never liked the dark much and when I open the door last thing to let the dogs out I have to go with him and bring a torch, for him you understand not for me LOL and if an owl hoots he's off like a scared rabbit.
We are progressing slightly though as this morning he walked into the middle of the kitchen floor then turned back again I did give him a treat when he made it that far...........keep your fingers crossed.
