its weird, all the girl dogs all have the same begging tactics too. even though bandit died years before pearl and sadie came along.
they sit quietly under the table and rest their chin on your knee. they also take food much nicer then the boys.
however, i think a large part of the boys rude habits is becuase dad has a tendancy to toss food or hold it in front of them so the grab, whereas i hold the food in my palm and hold it under their nose. both boys will back off and take things nicely when i raise my voice and remind them of manners.
pearl likes dried spaggetti. the others will eat it if they see her getting it, but she's the one who goes gonzo over it.
and dad's old dog, Northwest, loved tomatos.
