My Shar Pei, Sissy, would make the rounds under the table at any family gathering. Her cute, wrinkled face was impossible to resist, plus when she took the food she took it very gently. No snapping. When I took her to visit my Aunt in the nursing home, she and several of the residents were often sitting in the dining room eating popcorn. The older people loved to give Sissy popcorn because of how gently she took it. They also just had to pet her and she loved attention.
Mine have to watch from a respectful distance. They get tidbits of people food in their dog dishes afterwards. They are big enough to be really obnoxious if they thought that being nearby would get them tasty bites.

Maybe they are giving you a treat Louie. They also could be giving you something they don’t like.

It helps if the dog doesn’t burp and wag his tail wildly.

I have four who can be the opposite. If they are all together I need a chain mail glove!

I train my dogs from puppyhood to “take it nice.” No snapping here!

Works for me, Louie. I know I’d sneak you a treat every chance I have …
