Hmm...I've never actually tried...lol. I assume both of them would, though under different circumstances.
Discoe would likely leave the bowl as it was and come when called.
Reba would probably try to stuff all the food in her mouth hurriedly before she left the bowl, but still come promptly.

I never tried it. I think they will. But why would I want to bother them when they are eating? Don't they say to not do that?

What is it with you people brainstorming ways to torment your dogs while they're eating?

"Will your dog let you take his food while he's eating?
"Will your dog let you pet him while he's eating?"
"Will your dog let the other dog eat out of his bowl while he's eating?"
"Will your dog let you pull his tail while he's eating?"
"Will your dog come if you call while he's eating?"
"Will your dog dog write your Master's Thesis while he's eating?"
"Will your dog change your oil and rotate your tires while he's eating?"


I put down my dogs' food, it takes them about 30-45 seconds to eat, and we move on to the next thing.

Yes, not happily, but they do.

I board dogs and more than once I've mixed bowls and give to my dogs a food that is not theirs and I need to retrieve the bowl. I prefer to call the dog and to give the dish with the correct bowl before picking the other one than taking the food from them.

Sometimes I've left a dog on Platz, put the dish on the floor and feed another dog into a kennel, or something like that. If the dogs breaks the command and start eating on its own I will call him/her and make it wait before allowing to eat.

Ok, that's just funny.

To answer the question, yes, he probably would but I've never tested the theory.
