Question

How do you prevent your pet from begging at the table?

Answer 1

To prevent your pet from begging at the table, you can try the following tactics:

1. Ignore the behavior: If you give in to your pet's begging even once, it reinforces the behavior.
2. Train a "go to place" command: Teach your pet to go to a specific spot (such as a bed or mat) during meal times.
3. Provide distractions: Give your pet a toy or a puzzle feeder to keep them occupied during meal times.
4. Reward good behavior: Give your pet praise or treats when they are not begging at the table.
5. Be consistent: Enforce the rules every time to help your pet understand that begging is not acceptable.
