- Have your dog lie down on their dog bed near the table but not too close to it.
- Have a treat jar on the table. If your dog insists, give them a small treat and send them back to their spot.
- Be judicious about the number of times you’re offering even tiny bits of treat. Together, they could amount to a lot.
