hi friends.i start this discussion because of a peculiar behaviour my dog has and i am pretty sure it happens with other dogs too. except for meat,she doesn't eat any other food including milk,if it was just in its cup.she totally ignores it.she only drinks it if and only if either me or my dad is near.there are times she skip her noon meal .only when i enter the house,she goes and eat her meal. is it because she is spoiled or is she just over-sensitive? P.S.milk is her second favourite thing.lol

Oh yeah! My dog(Chloe) is definitely spoiled. Our little darling will leave her food for days so that she will get to eat people food. Most of the time she will not eat her dog food until late at night when everyone else has gone to bed and she knows there will be no more people food given to her. She will eat anything that humans do. She will sit right next to my husband and watch him just waiting for him to hand her food. With me, she knows she has to remain on the floor, but she is still there waiting ever so patiently because she knows we will give in. Thank goodness, we eat relatively healthy food. It is curious that your dog will only eat and drink if you are present. Maybe she wantst to save it till she knows you will be there to give her more? I always wonder what goes on in their little minds.

We don't spoil our dogs. They eat what is given to them, rice and fish or rice and dog meat. They don't have dog food because they don't like to eat it. Coycoy, loves to eat boiled young corn while his mom Anya loves to eat fruits. Give them coated peanuts and you can see how they are in heaven eating peanuts;)

Maybe the saying that says "You can't teach an old dog new tricks" is really true.
