Ash is quite persistent especially if chicken is involved, he will jump up on the spare dining chair and wait patiently, however I make him go down, and I always give him some nice titbits, Lexie really is not bothered , she has impeccable manners.

One thing I have noticed if I have a nice bit of food in my hand to give Lexie she will put her paw out and grab it, along with m finger ouch., whereas Ash will stand up and beg, funny how they are all different.
