[quote=Anonymous]What a relief! Get some rest and hope the rest of your holiday is uneventful. Teaching the “leave it” command is really important. It seems like every time I walk my dog there’s something dangerous laying around (wtf is it with all the chicken bones, anyway)?! Since one of the first commands puppies master is “sit,” it’s a pretty easy transition to teaching them to wait for their food, which helps reinforce that they don’t eat anything without your permission. Put them in the “sit,” hold your hand up saying “wait” while you get their food bowl. As you start to lower the bowl, if they break the sit, put the bowl back on the counter, put them back in the sit and repeat as necessary. Once they can hold the sit with the bowl on the floor, make them wait until you say “eat.” You should also occasionally touch them and their bowl while they’re eating to desensitize them from food aggression.[/quote]
