well.... My dogs are all pretty well trained. They do eat dog food and I give them plenty of treats. But when mom eats..... I do not give them any food. I have a new puppy now and she is still learning. But if you want your dogs not to beg at dinner or bother your guest.... they have to realize that they will not get food when we eat. I will actually set aside food for them and when it's another time.... I will give it to them. So my MaeMae comes with me to restaurants and she won't make a peep... she sleeps in her bag and nobody knows she is there. I can be on the sofa watching TV with a plate of steak and my dogs sleeping on my lap and around..... and they won't even look up. Because I am consistant with my training. And I do this because I love my dogs and they are well behaved and people who are in my home love them too. |
