Hi Folks,

I have several models that contain a polymorphic field. These poly fields contain four or five relationships each, some are soft deleteable, some are not. I'm running into a 'damned if you do, damned if you don't' problem and not sure how to solve.

If I load with a call to eager loading without including trashed on the models that have softdeletes:

$deptRisks = \App\DeptRisk::with(['owner', 'riskable']);

I will get the following error on those models that have been soft-deleted: Trying to get property of non-object

If I load WITH the withTrashed for the softdeletes:

 $deptRisks = \App\DeptRisk::with(['owner', 'riskable' => function ($query) {
            $query->withTrashed();
    }]);

I will get the following error on those models that have NOT been set up as soft-deletes: Call to undefined method Illuminate\Database\Query\Builder::withTrashed()

I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but I'm spinning in circles. Please help.
