I set boundries with Chip for the kitchen, he knows that if I am at the kitchen table eating he is not allowed in the kitchen. If I give him some scraps, I put it in his bowl and then give him permission to come in the kitchen. Now to the contrary, if I am watching tv on the couch and eating he will sit and stare at me. No begging, whining, or jumping, just trying to break me down with the "face". |
