[nagdu] Feeding dog during long day?

[Tracy Carcione]

I do the same as Sherry--feed the dog at work if I'm going to be 
significantly late getting home.
If you frequently need to be out past her dinnertime, you can re-schedule 
her dinner permanently to a time you'll usually be home.  The easiest way 
would be to gradually feed her later and later.
