My Labrador has never been full a day in his life, at least according to him. He could eat dinner and immediately stare at my sandwich like I betrayed him.

Mine can hear a cheese wrapper from another floor. I stopped believing the starving act years ago.

Some dogs are just food-motivated. I use slow feeders and puzzle bowls so dinner lasts longer.

If his weight is healthy, it is probably just drama. If he is gaining weight, ask your vet about portions.

I had to stop giving random treats because he learned that begging worked. Once everyone stayed consistent, it got better.
