Smokey is the most ANNOYING beggar!!!

He'll bite food right out of your hand, steal things off your plate, and BARK and whine at you!

Reggie the best. I don't mind his begging. He'll just sit there and stare at you, nothing more. He knows the trick "beg/sit pretty" and he's great at that! He'll also do "high-five" while doing this trick! He doesn't do that when he sees food though, just when we ask him to...

Nebo's like Reggie, unless you are on the floor. If you are eating at the table, he pretty much knows he's not getting any...he might sniff, but other then that...he doesn't even care. Now if you're on the floor...he has no problems crawling right in your lap while you're eating....

Anna, how did you teach Angus to do that trick? I was working on teaching Nebo that tonight. I had to either have my friend hold onto his rear end, or make him sit against the couch, or he'll stand instead of sit up for the food. He was getting the idea though, and getting better at it...except he was grabbing my arm for support, lol. But I'd just clipped his nails so he scratched me a couple of times and it bled! Anyway, I've heard though...that dogs have to build up the muscles to be able to sit up like that, so I guess it will take him a while to be able to balance like that on his own.
