Feed dog (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

chow

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'feed' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'dog' is the second definition.
(short for chow chow)

(Other definitions for chow that I've seen before include "Barker" , "Long-haired Chinese dog or slangy food" , "Food (colloq.)" , "Grub" , "Nosh" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
