I would've rather seen a crude Paint abomination by you than whatever that is. It would at least had some soul.

As someone who has had neighbor's children randomly walk into my house and demand things like food, water (I won't say no to children, I'm not heartless), and use of my TV and internet. I'm sorry, but don't let kids be pest is unironic in some areas. Some people haven't socialized their kids properly and we were the ones who had to explain to these kids (4 to 6 year olds) that wandering without permission into other people's houses was not only inappropriate but dangerous to them. We, the strangers, telling these kids that they should be wary of strangers. The parents just didn't give a fuck and wouldn't even talk to us, but they were apparently fine with their kids roaming into stranger's homes. I'm glad we moved away.

When dogs do that relocation of food is because they don't feel safe eating at the bowl. Usually because it is in a corner or the shape of the bowl blocks their peripheral view. They are skittish of where they eat, since it is instinctively a vulnerable act. Same reason they might get zoomies after pooping, you want to be as far away as possible as the smell gives away your position, predator stuff. Relocate the bowl to a location with a wider view of the room, not giving their back to open spaces. And choose a wide but shallow bowl that lets them see what is in their surroundings as they eat.
