Plate Hand feeding habit.

Takis (my york) had the same bad habit. you can look at my post for other people's suggestions. I tried all of their suggestions / tactics but he just wouldnt it. So I found another way. When your york is away from her food (around 10 steps) get some food in your hand and go near her. Give her one piece (only one piece at a time) and when she eats it go to steps closer to her bowl. Do this until you'll right by her bowl and drop the last piece (of food) on her bowl. If she doesnt eat and you're sure she's not full just leave the food there and go away. Repeat the next time. If she does eat it from her bowl stand about 8 steps far from her bowl next time and drop 2 pieces of food in her bowl. It might take several days or even weeks for her to learn (females learn easier but are very stubborn), but don't give up!! Good Luck with Angel
