To be honest, if it were me, he'd still be on 3 meals a day for the next couple of months. However, you may be feeding too much at the previous meal & so he just isn't that hungry when the morning comes.

Him going without his breakfast for a day will teach him to eat food put infront of him and not be fusy it wont do him any harm to go without breakfast for the day just as long as its not too many days in a row. Also be careful when you allow your other dog near your other dogs food there should be many bounderies in place at feeding time to prevent confrontation

Hahaha, yes, he could be trying it on!

The odd meal missed isn't a problem, but keep an eye on him if he misses another one.

yeah the best thing is to not feed him first thing and wait till evening time, then feed him, he will soon learn it eat his breakfast the next morning, as he will be feeling empty, you should also cut down on the size of his meal as well for a while
