There are also some precautions for dog feeding, and there are 3 rules to pay attention to. For example: 1. Don’t let the dog become the boss; 2. Don’t let the dog eat human leftovers at will; 3. Don’t let the dog have leftovers after the meal.

Rule 1: Don't let your dog become the boss

Don't forget that you have to let your dog eat after the whole family every day. Although this seems a trivial matter, it is very important to the dog. If you see your dog constantly asking for food as soon as you enter the door, you can't help but give it dog food first. It will make it think that it can be above its master and is the leader of its master. You should know that in the world of dogs, the right to priority food is always in the hands of the leader.

Rules 2: Don't let your dog become a "beggar dog"

When the whole family sits around the table to eat, the dog suffers under the table. At this time, if you can't help but give food to your dog on the dining table once or twice, the dog will develop the habit of asking for food from its owner, and slowly the dog will become a "beggar dog" or a "trash pile dog". So, you should reach a consensus with all owners from the beginning: you must never let your dog get any food from the dining table.

Rule 3: Don't always have dog food on the plate

Because you are worried that your dog will starve, many owners will keep food in the food bowl. But in fact, this will make dogs think that there is always food, so there is no need to rush to eat it. In the end, it will eat less, and it will not be easy for dogs to secrete gastric juice normally. The correct way is to set the eating time for the dog. If you don’t finish the food within the specified time, you must empty or take the food bowl.
