When I give my dogs a little people food it's in their bowls. No hand feeding. Don't have a problem with them begging at the table. Mine are pretty well behaved at this point. Pillow trained I call it. lol They have their pillows in the living room and in our bedroom. All I have to do I tell them to lay down and away they go. My female pit, I can whisper to her and she obeys, but she will test the wife every chance she gets. lol Training never ends....give an inch and they'll try and take a mile. It's the humans that come to my house that I usually have problems with around my dogs. The dogs follow me room to room so I'm guessing they're happy with the pack organization. lol
