Do you share "people" food with your dog?

Do you share treats from you plate with your dog?
I know it's not recommended... But look at those eyes!

I confess I occasionally do - not often. Usually, I will make them wait until I am finished before sharing though just so they remember who is top dog! lol

I call my dog ( my vacume dog) after I feed my baby in his highchair and he throwes food everywhere I will let my dog go in and clean up the mess, she does a great job to.

I am guilty. I really try not to, but he has a way of convincing me otherwise.

I won't give my dog tidbits off my plate, but he does get what's left. I then remove that amount from his normal dog food so that he doesn't get overweight.

If I let him eat what he wanted, he would look like a bacon pig within a fortnight!

I will only do it on rare occasions, when I'm feeling rather nice, or my dog has gone above and beyond his regular self. I feel that it is a bad habit to get a dog into, as it's hard to kick them of the habit, once they find out they like it.......

Mine just drools all over the place if I let him anywhere near my plate, so nope, feeding people food just isn't an option!

I do feed my dog what is left over from dinner. I don't feed them off my plate though. I try not to do it too often though. It is a bad habbit to get them into. My male dog was used to eating a LOT of "people" food when I got him. He's such a picky eater now it drives me crazy! LOL

It is a bad habbit and can make them rather scabby while your eating, But sometimes you just cant resist in throwing a bit there way.

I definetly dont give her anything while im eating as it makes me uncomfortable her sat there staring at me!

But I try not to give her any 'human food' at all.

My dogs eat my food all the time as long as it's nothing heavy in sugars or preservatives. Of course no cooked bones but they've gotten a little bit of rice and gravey or whatever I couldnt finish of my vegetables and meat

Their both really lean looking so i always think their starvin anyways LOL
