If a dog picks up food on the street, this is not a sign that the dog is undernourished. Cynologists advise considering this issue, including through the prism of the animal's upbringing.
It would not be superfluous to remind you that such innocent fun can end in big trouble for the animal and financial expenses for the owner.
Tulsky1 writes about how to avoid big problems, citing specialists from the canine service of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Tula Region.
Firstly, experts recommend paying attention to this issue from the dog’s earliest age.
The mistake is difficult to notice, and it lies in the fact that the dog is allowed to eat from the floor at home.
In this case, it is simply necessary to convey to the pet that it can only eat from a bowl.
It will be difficult to train an adult dog to behave properly.
Secondly, the dog must know and obey the “no” command.
Thirdly, it is important to feed the dog before walking, take some treats with you on the walk to reward the dog for good behavior.
This way the dog will understand that everything tasty can only be at home or in the hands of the owner.
In addition, you need to think about your diet.
If your dog is constantly trying to pick up something on his way, he may be lacking vitamins and minerals.
