Do you give your bulldog table food during your meals?

 

[BruceP]

Never! Our food isnt good enough for princess gracie!!!!

 

[bullmama]

I only will if we are having steamed carrots or green beans. BUT they do not get it at the table, they will get some in their own bowls away from the dinner table.

Now, Sedona on the other hand, likes to sneak food to the bulldoggies so I have to keep them out of the dining room during eating times. And I must clean up the floor around her after all meals and snacks as well. She is messy, but not as messy as my other babies were (luckily!!)

Duke gets the last bite of any lunch meat sandwich I happen to make and he loves Frito's corn chips. The only problem with the chips is that he farts even more. Sooooo, I eat them without his help when I can.

Nope. Do'nt want her to get use
to it. And to start bugging the crap
outta everyone when they are eating.

I don't share at the dinner table but i can't resist sharing. only things that are okay for him to eat.

Not while we are eating, but as soon as were done and taking our plates to the kitchen, Vegas is on a dead run to beat us and sits at his bowl, he knows that we have saved a bite of something for him, (that he is allowed to have) but it goes in his bowl, last night he had several Sugar Snap Peas and a few bites of steak, and he loved them and did NOT get gas!!

 

[Gertie's Mom]

Nope, I won't make that mistake! My husband gives bits and pieces of just about everything to Arrow. SO now if my husband is eating anything, anywhere, he sits right there drooling all over and whinning. Makes me want to strangle them both! Gertie and Ida get their food in their dishes. If there are little dabs of meat or veggies, they get it at their regular meal time.

[MENTION=881]Gertie's Mom[/MENTION], LOL "makes me want to strangle them both!" been there WANTING to do that!!

 

[Lacey28]

Yup sure do. Only things that she can have usually a few pieces of whatever meat we are having. She LOVES licorice and goes crazy when she sees it!

 

[TessaAndSamson]

Sometimes while I am cooking or after we are done eating and of course only things he is allowed to have. But most of the time no and NEVER when we are actually eating. Well I take that back, I have caught Dave doing it on many occassions which drives me crazy!!!!!

 

[Momma2Bullet]

not during eating times. we are teaching Bullet to stay away while we are eating. he's doing pretty well. now i've been known to drop a piece of meat or veggie while preparing a meal and he sits at a distance just waiting to pounce. lol don't really feed him table scraps, i'm trying hard to get him on a steady diet so he his well and with the least amount of gas.

What ever left over green beans the kids have after the table is cleared I will put them in the bowls for the dogs. Both of my pups will sit about 5 feet from the table and just wait to see if one of my kids will drop something and they both go for it, so who ever is fastest gets it. This doesnt happen very often as my kids know I dont want them eating the food

 

[Butterbean]

Sorry guys, But of course we do. The face gets me everytime, i know I am a sucker.

I said sometimes..but vary rarely. Never "during" the meal. We use to NEVER share. Mark's mom wanted "visitation" with Vegas during the week, so before she moved in with us, we would drop him off at her place for the day. She would share everything with him. Coffee (bad) tea (bad) and whatever was on her plate. Now she lives with us and we have scolded her and scolded her. Vegas will sit by her chair during dinner and whine. It's her own fault. She started it. She gets irritated with him, but she should never have shared in the first place. Now, she will give him a bite of her food after she's done. We've even scolded her about that. She is alone with him all day Tues, Wed and Thurs. He hasn't broken the habit yet..so I'm thinking, neither has she.

I just realized...I put some pop rocks in their mouths earlier. Since this wasn't a meal...and I was doing it for video purposes..it doesn't count.
