Butterfly dog (details)

When some dogs are eating, their image is super bad, and they are spilled everywhere when eating. You can't pick up the spilled dog food beside them. Too serious food protection makes many parents angry. So what should we do in this situation?
What about dog food protection? It is a bad behavior for dogs to protect their food. If dogs protect their food from childhood, not only will the previous "anti-food training" be difficult to learn, but at the same time, it will develop into toy protection, territory protection and so on. < br> Solution: < /strong>
1. At first, the dog will be very disgusted with your approach to its food, and even threaten its owner with his voice. So at the beginning, you can put a little food in front of it by hand, and then gradually feed it directly by hand. Gradually let the dog know that you are not a threat to his food, but a giver, so that he can relax his guard against you. < br> 2. Secondly, you can always let go and feed. Spread out your palms and put delicious food on your palms to feed the dogs. This feeding method is very safe. Dogs will lick and won't bite their hands. After getting used to it, you can try to hold the food bowl in your hand and feed it to your puppy. < br> 3. Then, you should make the dog adapt to having someone around when eating. When you feed it, put your hand on it first. While touching it, pour the food into its bowl. When it eats, don't stop touching it. Be gentle and slow, and talk to it, so that it can trust that you won't rob it of its meal. < br> 4. Don't be aggressive in petting, it depends on the dog's acceptance. Take your time. You can start by touching the back half of it, and then gradually move it to the head when it doesn't object (this process sometimes takes several days to complete). < br> 5. Once a dog is used to eating, it will not make a threat when someone is around and touched. Try to take away the food bowl. During the whole process of eating, if you find signs of threats, such as wrinkled nose, whirring, squint at people, etc., you will shout loudly and take away the food. When it is quiet, praise it, touch it and say, "Very good" and then give it to the bowl. Keep repeating this until it doesn't resist. < br> Note: < /strong > It takes a little patience to train a dog to "not protect its food". Don't rob it from the beginning, it will be dangerous to do so. Especially when taking away the rice bowl, pay attention to the dog's demeanor. If the dog shows signs of attack, stop taking away the rice bowl. Especially large dogs are like hungry wolves when eating. Yes, if you can, it's best to train from an early age, and it's almost enough to train repeatedly.
