Instead of feeding him from his bowl, I often feed Dawson either through games, toys, activities or training. As you can see in this video, I think he enjoys this dog scent game a lot. If he didn’t I know I would need to change what I am doing or how I am doing it. This is a very easy activity. Simply find all kinds of containers and little bowls, put food underneath them, and let your dog have fun finding everything. You see I also have Dawson sit and wait to be released. That is an fun way to strengthen your stay.
As always, have fun!
