Is it cruel to eat in front of a dog?

So to a dog, eating your dinner before him is really a meaningless concept. Certainly it is important that your dog has good manners around food, especially if that food is yours, but allowing him to eat his meal before you will not make him think he has the upper hand.

What do dogs think when you eat in front of them?

Dogs stare at you while you eat because they want what you're eating. In the wild, dogs stare at the pack leader as he eats. This is how they let him know they are hungry and hope to get his scraps. You're the pack leader, and they are hoping you'll share your meal.

Should I ignore my dog when I eat?

Table scraps are not healthy for your dog, and you should limit how much human food you give them. Training them to stop begging will be better for their health and your peace of mind. Stopping this behavior quickly will help you and your family eat without being bothered.

Should I eat at the same time as my dog?

Feed both dogs at the same time of day, but still cater to the alpha dog of the two (or more), by putting its food down first. As long as both dogs eat the same food, and will finish their meal all at once, there shouldn't be any problems.
