people propegate things because… “its always been that way”
its how their parents parents treated family dogs…
and others baby dogs to no end…
befire i had a dog, it had never occured to me that i was in fact reinforcing the wrong responses. as in always mess with the dog 1st, then talk with friends etc…
not all pet owners suck, they just dont realize how clueless they are.
i would feed dogs tanle scraps (if ok with owners anyway)
but there is no way i’ll feed the puppy from the table now.
