My dog will not stop eating
Cause: a medical condition such as diabetes; not interested
in anything else (boredom); behavior that arises because of his past is too
much to be fed, or even too little (e.g. small feeding excessive); and of
course there are dogs that are inherently greedy.
Types of dogs: Some kind of dog is to be greedy - Labrador
is the most famous.
Handling: see your veterinarian to ensure his health
condition. If your dog is healthy, train it to have more interest in other
things. Create he was busy with playing, walking, and practice so that he does
not have much time to think about food. At home, keep her ruffled trash, and
others, to look for food.
How to solve behavior problems like this is: when a
walk, if necessary, wearing her dog collar or muzzle protector to spare
scavenging for food, and try to concentrate on playing or training. Change
their diet by providing high-fiber foods can help, as this will make your pet
feel fuller after eating.

Prevention: define a regular schedule for feeding (usually
twice a day, morning and evening) and stick to the schedule. Do not give food
at any time, and if you use it as a reward when training, make sure the amount
of food you give. Avoid situations your dog tempted scavenge food, and make
sure your dog has the physical and mental stimulation sufficient to avoid
snacking while bored.

Cause: medical conditions, boredom, opportunity, greed.
Handling: before trying to deal with this problems, first
make sure that there is no medical cause. You can create a kind of trap food by
putting food on a pile of cans are balanced, and when your dog tries to steal
the food, the cans were going to fall and cause noise. Generally, this can help
prevent your dog take food itself. However, stubborn dog will ignore the noise,
while dogs are sensitive to noise may be precisely depressed and eventually
phobia of food.
Even more effective is the two-step approach: remove the
chance he stole, and introduce an acceptable substitute behavior. First, make
it all the food cannot be accessed. Lock the food cupboard, move the bins that
are out of reach, never leave food on the kitchen table, and never left the
table with food on it without supervision - if you have to leave the table,
take your plate. You can also block access to the kitchen by using a special
gate. While teaching your dog, clean up any spills as precisely as possible so
that he could not get any food remnants.
Second, introduce your dog to the alternative behavior.
Teach him to lie down, on the mat or in a certain angle, while you are preparing
or eating food, and if he can keep quiet when you eat, give snacks as a reward.
At first maybe he can only survive silent for a moment, but give it a reward,
while building an understanding of what to do so he will wait until you are
finished.
Prevention: with a new puppy, follow the above two-step
approach from the beginning he maintained, so that your dog will not have a
problems of bad behavior.
