Signals around meals
Look for slower approach, repeated pauses, unusual head angle, reluctance to chew, guarding, or leaving food unfinished. The pattern matters more when it is different from the same dog's usual routine.
What to record
- Short clips before, during, and after meals.
- Meal completion changes over 7, 14, and 30 days.
- Moments when another pet interrupts or blocks access.
Do not use a camera clip as medical proof. Share persistent or concerning changes with a veterinarian.
