Yes, I recommend feeding twice daily and he should have a good quality senior food. Often feeding some wet food will help him feel less hungry. You can also give a Kong toy filled with cheese spread or peanut butter which will keep him busy and may help to reduce the barking.

Hi, thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! If the bag containing the food was air tight and non-pourous it is likely fine. Even if it wasn’t stored with essential oils, 3 months is a long time to store dog food. We worry about mold formation and these foods usually have an expiration date. I’d remove the food from the closet with the essential oils. If it smells like the oils when you open the bag, discard the food. Have a good day

It's impossible to know if it's a coincidence or not. I'd recommend just getting a new bag and calling the company to let them know. Their number will be on the bag and they should offer a refund and get the information from you about lot number, production date, etc on the bag so they can keep track of any issues in their system. Hold off on food for the rest of the night (water is fine), and go ahead and offer half a breakfast in the morning. If he doesn't keep that down, I'd recommend a vet visit for a check up and likely some mild supportive care before Otis ever gets really ill.

I often recommend trying a programmable feeder for this problem. You can program the feeder to provide an amount of food at a certain time, and dogs are generally smart enough to know that the machine (and not you!) provides the food at a certain time and will sit in front the feeder until the meal shows up!
