Re: ....And Say, "All Gone."

My avatar collie, Jett, used to have to stand on his back legs and smell my breath when I'd come home from eating out.

Same here, especially after I give treats. She thinks there's more coming until I show her my empty hands.

Yes, I had to show the empty hands and then say, "Gone, gone" for them to even believe me! 😁 But on occasion there could still be a non believer. 🤣

@lovemybichonfrise    Thank you so much.  Unfortunately, he's gone now.

#TRUTH!  I show both hands and say "pau" ("done" in Hawaiian, pronounced "pow") and Toby goes to his water bowl to wash it all down.

Yep definitely a universal gesture.  We use it too.  It's so funny to see them all turn and walk away when you "show the hands".

If my dog doesn't like you, neither do I.

I oftentimes must show him the empty dish - just to be sure I hadn't missed anything, I guess.
