When you spoil your pet...
Our first dog that we named Jedi was admittedly a spoiled dog. Her breakfast for many years was roasted hotdog which we hand feed her. When a friend dropped by and saw what we were doing, he remarked that we just leave the hotdog in the dish and the dog would definitely eat it when it gets hungry. That's true for an ordinary dog but for a spoiled dog like Jedi, she would rather get hungry.

Now our youngest dog is Barbie, admittedly my favorite. But I'm not the guilty party. It was our housemaid who started hand-feeding her for breakfast. With lunch and dinner, there's no problem for Barbie eats her meals like our other 2 dogs. But she got used to the spoiling of our housemaid that she wouldn't eat when not hand-fed. Now it is a weaning period because my husband had reprimanded our housemaid. She is now teaching Barbie to eat by herself. For 3 weeks, the coaxing did not bear fruit and more often than not, Barbie did not eat her breakfast. Let her go hungry, my husband said. Now on its 4th week, Barbie is eating her breakfast after much coaxing. But at least she eats by herself.

I hope this serves as a lesson to pet owners. As what dog trainers say, train your dog and don't let your dog train you.
