I don't have to be in the room with my little hunk of fur. But I have to be home. Even if I'm gone all day he won't even eat his treat till I get home
I used to think this was weird and then we adopted a lab who wouldn't take food from anyone but my dh and me. This is not a case of being spoiled this is being protective owner. There are too many strange people who would like nothing better than to poision your fur baby through treats and food. Always go for the side of caution. It can be troublesome when you have to leave them with the border's when you're away but at lease you know the hand that feeds them. Ok I'll get off my soap box now but just know your meal time routine is your dogs way of calling the family to dinner.
