My dog did something that I've never seen him do before. Waited until the kid got up from the kitchen table to blow her nose, leaped on to the chair, skinny body stretched out, front paws on the table and hoovered the rest of her meal up in seconds. He didn't even stop when I walked in. This is why I have rules about pushing chairs in.
Kid now understands why they need to follow the rule too!
I had a dog that loved walking around on the dining table, so any time a chair wasn't pushed in she would be up there, whether there was any food or not. The other dog I had at the time would just sit on the chair like you'd expect of any invited guest.
She took a risk walking 3 metres to get a tissue. She lost her meal.
