How to teach your dog to eat only on command

Teaching a dog to eat only on command

- Put your food plate with its content  down
-  Release your dog on leash toward the food plate
- He is obviously eager to start eating so put him into a sit position in front of the food , hold him there till he calms down while still drooling
- Say "eat" and release him to eat the food

What you have taught the dog through "classical conditioning " is that he is only permitted to eat once he sit down and calms in front of the food until you say the eat command. The success of the training lies in consistency and it is advised to ration the food so as to be able yo have multiple sessions of the eat on command training session in a day . This helps to learn faster . The average dog will pick this lesson in less than 10 days . just be calm , patient and consistent and you will have a "eat on command" trained dog .
