I have to manage anything edible in our house. Yogi is impossible when it comes to food. While we are eating, nobody gets anything unless they stay in their place until released and then they get to lick my boyfriend's plate. Not mine, I just don't like the habit, but I don't see much harm if they are expected to behave prior. NOW, food left out unattended, the garbage, whatever else is fair game as far as Yogi's concerned. We have to manage it, he's definitely NOT trained to leave anything when he's home alone. It is dangerous, he's proven that a couple times. But I have zero trust in him and never will, no matter how much training we put into place. I had a Rottweiler years ago who was the same way. To her credit, she had been dumped in the country and weighed 63 pounds when I adopted her. Her healthy weight was 98 pounds. She was skin and bones, he skin literally hung on her frame. I think she just never got over that. One day I came home from work and there was an empty can of refried beans on the floor, we hadn't eaten refried beans. I picked up the can and she had chewed the top all the way around and the top of the can was shoved down inside all the way to the bottom, she had forced it down while squeezing the beans out...
