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.
My dog acts like he’s starving five minutes after eating. Does anyone else’s dog do this?
He gets his normal meals, treats, and plenty of attention, but somehow he looks betrayed every time someone opens the fridge.
Replies said many dogs act hungry even after eating, especially food-motivated breeds. Users suggested portion checks, puzzle bowls, and not rewarding begging.
Answers & Discussion
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.
