how do people starve their dogs? this is a legitimate question
my dog was pretty severely underweight when i got him, probably had been starved at some point
but today i got home from work and he's out of food so i'm going to walk over to the store soon and get some but i'm being slow and lazy and he will NOT fucking shut up about it
hypothetically would he just give up at some point?
do people just tune out the whining and barking for food?
if so how can they? it's so fucking annoying! and obviously sad and mean to starve your dog

A lot of dogs don't bark to communicate with owners, especially if they've been conditioned not to (bark->beat, repeat).
A lot of owners who neglect dogs leave them chained outside or in another room/building/shed/garage, etc. Also probably spend a good amount of time outside so they aren't bothered by it I'm sure.

Pretty much this, most starved dogs are out of sight, out of mind deals.

Yep.
My dog never makes a sound when he's hungry. Most times, I'll feed him before he "asks" anyway but I know he's hungry if I hear him pawing at his food dish
I feed my dog at 6pm sharp every day. She starts bugging me for food at 5pm and I always feel guilty.
my dog eats when he barks or whines for food
i used to free freed him out of a wobbler but the stupid rabbit started wobbling too
i like that about dogs, they can actually tell you when they need something
i would suck at a plant or a fish or anything along those lines
My dogs never ask for food. Never a bark, never a whimper, never messing with a food dish.
I guess they might start complaining if I left them for a couple of days, but I've forgotten to give them a meal entirely and they haven't made a sound.
They're fed twice a day.
I always cook a separate meal for my dogs.
Here are some recent examples:
Mashed potatoes and gravy.
Vegan "beef", red beans, carrots, yeast flakes.
Crumpets with marmalade. Admittedly that was pretty much the same as my meal.
BBQ'd eggs.
Omelette, with cheese and butter.
(I very rarely eat eggs or dairy so this was for them only)
Slow cooked organic vegetables, including potato, carrot, brocoli, cabbage, beetroot and spinach.

What's your problem

1/10 for making me reply
op, you seem able to tune it out enough to post on 4chan instead of feeding him.

>An American thought his dog was underweight.
Your dog was probally fine anon.
My girlfriends sister only feeds her two large dogs a cup of food in the morning and that's it for the rest of the day.

If you're serious and not just fishing for bait, try feeding them more protein..

Bait.
But on a more serious note, this would kill one of my dogs within about a month. If the malabsorbtion didn't get him, the intestinal dysbiosis would. Or the haemorrhagic gastroenteritis.
Holy hell who would intentionally feed their dogs this sort of a diet.

This is a real vegan menu for dogs. They think it's spoiling there dogs and healthy at the same time.
