[nagdu] People food

[Chantel Cuddemi]

Rhonda,

I am the same way with Motley. 

He only gets his dog food and his treats I buy him and an occasional ice
cube. 

If he tries to look for food, he gets a correction.

scrounge for food when in harness.   Out of harness he will take advantage
of opportunities, but isn't a nuisance.  Yesterday for example, the new
shipment of dog food came.  both bags had broken open in the box and there
was a trail of kibble.  Monty didn't hesitate to help get that cleaned up.
then last nightI noticed him licking the floor.  Apparently something was
spilled earlier.

discussion and the rules were strictly enforced.  It took a couple of weeks,
but he's fine again.

food. I don't give my dog people food ever. I'm not saying he doesn't find
ways. We have rules; he scrounges for food anyway. The only people food I
ever give my dogs is carrots. At Starbucks they have a doggie latte that is
essentially a small cup of whipped cream. Nope. The dog begs enough. And
I've seen dogs that got people food go into places and wave their beaks
around like a sweeper, and this was a GSD. I don't really get the concept of
giving the dogs people food. Understand, though, that this is just my view
and the man to whom I used to be married. He was very strict about such
things, and I have followed suit.
