Begging Dog....

Yes, I had dogs over the years and they always had bits from my food. I'm sure they are fine with treats now and again. I know when I over at my kids my daughters dog can't wait for treats.

I think it is bad idea because it affects their health alright. But their faces are so cute that we cannot deny them..

I give my dogs treats of cereal because since I found out the boxed dog bones will put on weight I stopped buying those and once in a while I will give them a treat of green beans which they like.

Pretty much every indoor dog we've had got scraps from the table while we ate. It doesn't matter that I would prefer NOT to feed them from the table, as it makes them awful beggers, and even makes them want to steal food from the baby (who is not trying to give them his food, he just happens to be..well..short, cause he's a baby. My husband is the biggest culpret, and as long as he does it it doesn't do the rest of us any good not to.

I wouldn't feed a dog at the table but I might give her any leftover scraps afterwards.

Just don't give them anything with onions, garlic, or grapes/raisins, or chocolate, as those can be fatal. Also, if it is very spicy you may have a mess to clean up later. (The voice of experience.)

My husband and I always eat breakfast in the garden and our dog would always stay under our table and so we always throw some pieces of bread to them.

We never feed our pet at the table. She has her special food. I have never liked dogs begging.

I don't have any pets right now, nor have I owned a dog. But, my boyfriend had a dog before ~ and he would feed his dog human food ~ but not much. He was really careful.

I myself, and my mother and father have owned dogs in the past. And we all fed our dogs table food. But, we'd only feed them what wouldn't hurt them ya know. I like to try to feed dog with some table food once in awhile. but, not all of the time. It will get them use to it, and than, that's what they'll expect all of the time when it comes to feeding time. Me and my wife have a puppy now, and we don't feed her table food. Except a piece of bologna one time, which, I think the puppy liked it. idk, I wasn't home when she fed her the bologna. But, I think it's OK to feed them once in awhile. as long as you don't do it all of the time. as I said before, they'll get use to eating table foods, and that's what they'll expect every time it's time to eat. :D

Never had a dog. I see nothing wrong with giving dogs regular food.

i share with them. because they knew when i am eating. they stand up beside me, hahaha

I often gave my dog a little nibble of our food. He lived to a ripe old age. But he got his treat away from the table. He did not beg.

It really does depend on what you give the dogs. I have had some vets say no human food what so ever than I have had some say that I dog need fruit and veggies just like humans do. You just have to make sure what you give them because some human foods can be toxic to dogs garlic is one of them

I try to feed my cat before I set down to eat myself. I never allow my cat to eat from my plate, and try to teach it not to beg when someone is eating. My cat is a picky eater, but loves tuna fish, and will often beg for it. I always try to give her some before I sit down to eat.

I always leave a little meat on my plate to give to the cat after she has sat on the chair next to me looking hopeful throughout the meal.

When we had our dog he was not allowed to beg but I always gave him some left overs when we were done eating.

According to most vets, dogs don't need people food. There is a huge list of foods that should not be given to dogs, I hope you know all of them. We gave our dog just beef or chicken and she got very ill and the vet said not to ever give her people food again - they don't need it.

Our dogs eat freaking everything including inedible objects

Some foods can be upsetting to a dogs stomach and in some cases deadly @T_gray . The only things I ever gave mine as a treat was chicken and T-bones.
