I must have read the same things Teddykins mama read, lol. I have always handled my pups when feeding them. I will pet them, but my hands in the food bowl to mix it up, and take it away if they are gobbling it up to quickly. I always put it right back down and say slow down! So that's one issue I haven't encountered. But the jealousy is a whole other matter. Sunni is very possessive of me, and jealous of Harry. I got great advice from a friend of mine on here, who said when I'm paying attention to Harry(other dog) to have rewards and when Sunni starts behaving reward her. I say be nice. If she gets in between us, which is her go to move. I move her away and say no, sit/stay. If she does, I give treat. I treat Harry for just putting up with her, lol. Its been a few days doing this and I she's starting to understand that being nice is better then being bold. |
