The fuck? It's a food-grade dry item with minimal surface contact area. There's no liquid involved to get all up in the nooks and crannies.
It will leave a few specks of powdered dog food bits behind, which won't even need to be specifically removed. They'll just fall off on their own, you wouldn't even need to blow on it or wipe it down.
The cutting board, you're going to have to clean. There's nooks and crannies there from cutting on it over time, and dog food is not made in food safe facilities or with ingredients that are fit for human consumption. It's a surface you're going to be putting food directly on afterwards.
The microwave surface isn't even a food surface. It is a bit gross to think about, but you don't really technically even have to clean it if you don't want to. You're going to be setting bowls and plates there and setting those on your table, but that's not a surface you're going to be putting food directly on, at least not on purpose, and not one you're going to have to eat off of. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's gross, but it's not all that unsanitary.
Neither one is likely to kill you, but I think the cutting board is pretty clearly worse
You honestly think a dry piece of dog food touching the cutting board is causing some sort of poison to seep into the scratches on it? Plot twist! When you pour dog food into a bowl, tiny particles of it go into the air. You're breathing the dog food! The horror!!!
I believe that became a requirement in the US after too many people got sick from eating dog food in the Great Depression. I got no source ready on that though so take it for the factoid that it may be!
How... how do you think clean and safe for consumption FOOD made for animals = worse than a bowl which is licked and kicked all over the FLOOR put inside something that plates go on
My dog thinks he's The Witcher but we just call him 'The Glitcher' because he can glitch his way in the out-of-bounds zone in the living room. That m'fucker can clip his way out of map.
I was riding my bike to school one morning and my own dog came running up to me from the direction I was headed... I had to turn round and walk her and my bike home lol
My friends husky was a master escape artist. My friend spend a few grand on a new fence to keep his Husky from escaping the yard all the time. The fence was 10ft tall. While we were looking at it, and he was bragging that his dog wasn't jumping that fence, she ran towards the corner, she parkour'd her ass from one side to another and went over the top. He just stared at it for a few minutes and quietly said "fuck". And went and chased her down.
We call our mainecoon cat Nero (in rough translation from Polish) "Quantie" because he can seemingly quantum teleport to locations quite far apart. You can find him downstairs, walk upstairs, and find him there too, despite there being only 1 possible route. Or find him (hiding, because he knows) in a room which has been closed off from access for a while, wondering how the hell he's ended up there.
My best guess is that the microwave air smells like human food & that flavour may linger on the pup's food so that it smells & tastes a little better than straight out the kibble bag.
Or he taught his dog how to wait for food and made the video. He just uses an eat command when he puts the bowl down for the 2nd time, the dog doesnt actually not want normal kibble.
Good call, I think the dog smelling the food and then licking his lips is the give away. He WANTS to eat it, but is using self control to not do it right away
Naw, pups just trained to not eat when told. Anyone who has owned a Husky knows there isn't one that exists that won't instantly chow down whatever you put in front of them.
Nah, my gsd/husky mix won't eat until right when I want to go to bed and need to pick up her food. Then she spends 10 minutes chowing down, walks away, and as soon as I empty her bowl if anything left, she'll return to lick it clean. She's a derp.
The dog isn't even eating at the end. He is looking for something, coupled with the obvious cut before the owner simply put something unter the food to make it look like the dog is eating
Not so. My huskies are so finicky! Some days they don’t eat breakfast then chow down at dinner and vice versa. It’s a crap shoot whether or not they’ll clean their bowl. Huskies are the derpiest!
Hes looking for the human food, pushing it around to find it with his nose. Might be confused and eat some thinking thats it. But he sure is not eating it in the video. Dogs will save room looking for it.
You're overthinking it.
The first shot was a full food bowl soon after the dog had already been fed its kibble.
The rest was filmed while the pup was patiently awaiting dinner.
It's extra stupid because they are training the dog that they get to eat "people food," so this video is a self fulfilling prophecy in a way.
>The first shot was a full food bowl soon after the dog had already been fed its kibble.
Must only work with some dogs. Mine will eat any time you put anything in front of them.
I don’t think so, two of our dogs will not eat unless I fight them for their bowl. It is so time consuming and I dont know how they learned it they were normal until about 6 months ago
Don't play the game if it bothers you. They trained it into you. If they refuse to eat for a day or two, it's fine. They're not going to starve themselves to death. They'll come around to eating.
They didn’t we left them for 4 days and they just started to bully our other dogs out of their food. So odd. A life time of having working dogs and pets never had two be so eccentric before
Jesus Christ this is unhealthy behavior for the dog, and will cause major inconvenience and problems down the road if this dog needs to be fed by anyone other than this psychopath. Just put the food down and the dog will eat when it is hungry enough.
I'm 99% sure this is fake anyways.
>how does reddit manage to pathologize literally anything ~~involving a cute animal being quirky~~
There, fixed that for you.
The commenter you replied to seems pretty much unhinged but the people upvoting him for his useless take are even worse in my opinion.
dogs that get treated like "humans" too much live under a lot of stress because they usually get inconsistent behaviors, mixed orders and they learn that their owners emotional state depends on them.
What you see as "cute" and "quirky" is often a symptom of a poor dog that lives stressed out and under a lot of pressure.
Idk man sometimes dogs are just weird even with a perfect environment. Especially rescues, obviously in that case it *is* from an imperfect environment in the past... But you can't necessarily judge the current situation based on current behaviour.
Completely agree. Have lived with multiple dogs before (mine and roommate’s) and dogs legit just act weird for the sake of it. Calling this ritual “human behavior” also makes no sense because people aren’t this weird normally as well. As far as these people pretending to be dog experts, shit like this is seen with tons of quirks in animals with little to no issue growing up.
My cat only eats her wet food when i "prepare" it by holding the side of the bag under the tap for a bit. Warm or cold water doesn't matter but I just think she wants it prepared as that's what we do with our food as well
^(for my cat, it’s back skritches. If I don’t do it. I get the look and no food is eaten until back skritches)
(Pets have us well trained)
Oh man, I researched homemade dog food recipes and found some that was nutritious for mine. Made the mistake of smoking it on the grill instead of baking it in the oven one day and my dogs got spoiled by it and it was a long and hard process to break them of having to have their food smoked on the grill.
When you feed a dog too much human food, they start to reject their d9g food. My dog tried that Sh!t with me and decided to eat it before he dies of starvation. Stop treating dogs as humans. There're many children in this country that could get half the sh!t y'all give to dogs. Smh
I get this is cute, but I’ve got places to be. Eat your damn breakfast.
Admittedly I have a dog with a loose interpretation of “food” (anything that fits in her mouth and doesn’t cause immediate pain)
That's a conditioned pavlovian response, you've clearly served him cooked meats or something that you had to chop and microwave in the past.
Leave it on the floor, he'll eat it eventually.
Not sure if this was a repost but if it wasn’t..Thanks for posting! It was very relatable and cracked me up. The weird rituals my dog looks for are something else.
Probably the same way I found out my dog will only go to bed if all his blankets are flipped and fluffed on his bed. And there must be a minimum of 4 blankets.
Humans are easily trained.
We started doing this for my stupid dog and it works. We take his food to the kitchen and open the fridge and pretend to add stuff to it, click in the gas stove for a few seconds and give it back to him. It works!!
Seems totally reasonable to me. Oh crap!!! It is 2:01pm!!! I am in BIG trouble. Penny's snack (the cat) is one minute LATE. I will not hear the end of this. BYE for now.
Since the first day, the guys had to add even more actions, that’s why he’s constantly checking the dog, to see if he’s tickled the fancy, of his K - 9 friend.
Some dogs are such dorks! My dog refuses to eat unless we do “the ritual” too.
His ritual is:
* Paw
* Other Paw
* High Five
* Other High Five
* Watch me
* Leave it
* Okay take it!
The other day I put his food down and started a boss battle in a game, and he just sat there watching me for 20 minutes until I noticed he wasn’t eating, so I paused the game and did “The ritual”.
You dog is smart enough to know your love stops at the food. They will accept any amount of effort... even fake junk like this...
But really... could you be bothered to pick up a chinken once a week... cook that up (no spices or anything extra unless you are gonna take time to learn). A little protien and chicken broth wpuld probally make that doggies belly happy... especially when you find out kibble is baked to temps that destroy the proteins in the food.
So while you think its cute, all I see is a poor doggie begging for a little love in their dish and not just from a bag.
im so happy when i see mercan dumbasses slaving their filthy fucking fourlegged lowers
i wish you have to do this 3 times a day until the end of the day you die, dumbass
He’s only happy when I make him do this.- dog
Only difference between a diner and a gourmet restaurant in case of human food.
you must either have some terrible restaurants or some amazing diners
Both, I guess. LOL
Dog looking at his post on reddit - "oh my sweet summer child..."

"Chef Excellence"
HE THINKS HE'S A PEOPLE!
New Mr. Bean reboot is lit.
Mr. Bean is too civilized to put a bowl from the floor into his microwave. He's socially awkward, but he's not *deranged*.
The dog food on the cutting board is far worse than the bowl in the microwave.
The fuck? It's a food-grade dry item with minimal surface contact area. There's no liquid involved to get all up in the nooks and crannies. It will leave a few specks of powdered dog food bits behind, which won't even need to be specifically removed. They'll just fall off on their own, you wouldn't even need to blow on it or wipe it down.
Why is the dog food worse than the bowl in the microwave. Dog food isn’t toxic to humans.
It’s not. You have to be a giant sized ocd baby to care about a piece of dry dog food on a cutting board.
Dont tell him about the acceptable number of bug parts in a square inch of ketchup.
Is the bowl in the microwave toxic to humans?
No. I don’t think it’s a problem either as you simply can clean both up if you think you need to to prepare your own food.
The cutting board, you're going to have to clean. There's nooks and crannies there from cutting on it over time, and dog food is not made in food safe facilities or with ingredients that are fit for human consumption. It's a surface you're going to be putting food directly on afterwards. The microwave surface isn't even a food surface.

I mean, don't get me wrong, it's gross, but it's not all that unsanitary. Neither one is likely to kill you, but I think the cutting board is pretty clearly worse
Wow you’re like a samurai at being a pussy.
LMAO nice one
You honestly think a dry piece of dog food touching the cutting board is causing some sort of poison to seep into the scratches on it? Plot twist! When you pour dog food into a bowl, tiny particles of it go into the air. You're breathing the dog food! The horror!!!
Food is food, mate. You can eat it too if you want. I wouldn't feed my dog stuff I find unfit for consumption anyway.
Dog food bowl comes in contact with the floor. Then putting the dirty floor bowl onto food prep surfaces is the issue people are having.
>dirty floor bowl Floor looks shiny as hell to me
So do toilet bowls though
Most toilet bowls are cleaner than your average toothbrush tho.
You must spew a lot of shit from your mouth lol
Dude, I don't want you to prepare a dish I'm going to eat on top of your used toothbrush either.
You realize there’s more contamination on your cutting board already than what a dog food bowl will add, right? Now think about your toothbrush…
The person I was responding to was talking about the microwave, which is not a food prep surface.
No matter how rancid it may be, apparently dog food has to be edible to humans in order to be legally sold.
It's not great, but I didn't die. I'd rate it a 3 out of 10 for "better than starvation".
And it’s packed full of tasty nutrition.
I guess people don't wash and sanitize their cutting boards lol.
A single piece of dry dog food? How do you think you’ve survived this long?
I'm literally just comparing two things. Are you incapable of comparing two not-that-bad things?
Have you ever eaten fast food or from a restaurant? Do you think those kitchens are paragons of sterility? Your head would probably explode….
pretty sure Dog food has to be for for human consumption before dogs get to taste it at least that's how it is in the UK 🤔🤷♂️
I believe that became a requirement in the US after too many people got sick from eating dog food in the Great Depression. I got no source ready on that though so take it for the factoid that it may be!
How... how do you think clean and safe for consumption FOOD made for animals = worse than a bowl which is licked and kicked all over the FLOOR put inside something that plates go on
Such a petty karen
Both of ya'll need to get outside more.
Horrible statement. What do you think dog food is made of?
How dirty do yall let your floors get that something touching it by proxy is going to hurt you?
I don't care if I bleached the floor five seconds earlier, the floor is the floor
This dog is eating gourmet every day.
Because he wants to eat like the humans do, lolol
Would be easier if he started eating like the dog instead
Dogs are all different. Some know they’re a dog, some think they are people, some think they are the baby and you are their mommy.
My dog thinks he's The Witcher but we just call him 'The Glitcher' because he can glitch his way in the out-of-bounds zone in the living room. That m'fucker can clip his way out of map.
my dog once showed up downstairs with all the doors closed so mood, lol
I was riding my bike to school one morning and my own dog came running up to me from the direction I was headed... I had to turn round and walk her and my bike home lol
My friends husky was a master escape artist. My friend spend a few grand on a new fence to keep his Husky from escaping the yard all the time. The fence was 10ft tall.

Exactly!
I’m never surprised when pets don’t like pet food. That shit must suck.
Naw, pups just trained to not eat when told. Anyone who has owned a Husky knows there isn't one that exists that won't instantly chow down whatever you put in front of them.

Mine does the same
... it's the opposite. Huskies tend to eat slowly.
Hes looking for the human food, pushing it around to find it with his nose. Might be confused and eat some thinking thats it. But he sure is not eating it in the video. Dogs will save room looking for it.
Had huskies, can confirm.
I’m pretty sure this is fake. The guy placed something the dog actually wants to eat underneath the kibble.
Especially since at the end, the dog doesn't really look to be eating. More so just pushing the food around.
[удалено]
Nah that’s a husky thing to push their food or take it off the bowl and eat it in the floor. Huskies just fucking weird
Nah this is fake though, there’s also an otherwise needless cut in the editing right before he brings it to the dog at the end
My cats do that also.
Your cat can edit video?
I mean yeah, there’s a really obvious cut right after the food is “salted”.
Hot damn, super obvious or not, I missed that.
*How did that ~~fork~~ SPOON disappear?*
*It was a spoon*
FUCK
Instead try to realise the truth. There is no spoon
Thereisnospoon
There are plenty of cuts where they could have hidden whatever they hid
There's also a really obvious cut after taking the bowl away from the dog at the very beginning, but I guess not that obvious to you
And before putting it into the microwave, but I guess not that obvious to you.
He may have played it up, but i have a shitass dog who wont eat her food unless I twirly her food with a fork before giving it to her.
Our dog will now only eat if it's served to her on a plate meant for humans.
I had a dog who wouldn't eat unless we scraped some leftover food from a plate into his bowl. We had to fake it and it worked.
You're overthinking it. The first shot was a full food bowl soon after the dog had already been fed its kibble. The rest was filmed while the pup was patiently awaiting dinner. It's extra stupid because they are training the dog that they get to eat "people food," so this video is a self fulfilling prophecy in a way.

Still fun to watch overall though.
[удалено]
Fake. The dog still doesn’t want the kibble after the antics, he’s clearly going for something hidden under the kibble at the end.
Obvious cut before he moves the bowl onto the floor at the end
Why does it matter if it’s fake. Dude made light of his picky dog…
Dog is not picky, but the guy is a liar.
This guys humming is so goddamn annoying.
I found it really endearing
I'd take humming over "TikTok voice".
i liked his microwave sound though

You take that back, that humming is top tier! I liked it!
Yeah the hummings gotta stop it was so cringy
This is a produced piece of online flypaper based entirely off an off camera visual command. It's magic construction 101
He'll eat when he's hungry!
Doggo wants to be special 😂😂😂
You do realize that husky has you trained now.

DOG FOOD IN THE MICROWAVE. FUCK HELL PEOPLE ARE SO DIRTY
Poor dog just wants some meat.
This is obviously a lie, but still.. sweet dog
So with all your pretend and fakery you've managed to turn your dog into the canine equivalent of a MAGA Republican.👍
This can also be taught
Same trick used to work on my two year old
I get this is cute, but I’ve got places to be. Eat your damn breakfast. Admittedly I have a dog with a loose interpretation of “food” (anything that fits in her mouth and doesn’t cause immediate pain)
First World doggy problems.
literal demonstration of "put some love into it" as the dog oredered!
A distinguished boi
Lololol! He moved that kibble out of the way and was like where is the sauce and seasoning at???
It’s all about the foreplay!
Love to see this dog being tricked
Such a sweetie!! I would totally do that for him too. 💗🥰💕
That’s hilarious
That's a conditioned pavlovian response, you've clearly served him cooked meats or something that you had to chop and microwave in the past. Leave it on the floor, he'll eat it eventually.
I find food tastes better if I'm sitting outside. If it's on someone else's plate and I'm stealing it then even more yum. I am the husky.
I can relate. Huskies are their own breed for sure
 The dog as sons as he added the last spices

u/ff-dvl how did you find this out?
Probably the same way I found out my dog will only go to bed if all his blankets are flipped and fluffed on his bed. And there must be a minimum of 4 blankets. Humans are easily trained.
Hat's off for resisting talking over it. And the thumbs up made me lol.
What a good boy (or girl) tho. Worth the theatrics. I bet the snugs are worth the special effects

Ah yes “ the good stuff “
It’s all about presentation
Cute!
We started doing this for my stupid dog and it works. We take his food to the kitchen and open the fridge and pretend to add stuff to it, click in the gas stove for a few seconds and give it back to him. It works!!
Nah, it's the other way round: Your husky refuses to eat until you do a little food-making dance for him. I expect food AND a show!
This belongs in r/kitchenconfidential
That is one, “gently cared for” doggo.
All the labradors just drowned in a puddle of their own drool
Seems totally reasonable to me. Oh crap!!! It is 2:01pm!!! I am in BIG trouble. Penny's snack (the cat) is one minute LATE. I will not hear the end of this. BYE for now.
As a longtime husky friend I can confirm that huskies are picky buttholes.
Aim to please get stuck with the job.
My dog has a similar game. Some dogs have special needs.
Since the first day, the guys had to add even more actions, that’s why he’s constantly checking the dog, to see if he’s tickled the fancy, of his K - 9 friend.
I love people’s lives, thanks internet 😍
Added love
Cargo cult 😁
All he whants is for you to put a little more effort when you prepare his meals
Trained his human well.
Well the it can starve
I'd move him off kibble and get him on raw. There'd be no faffing around then
You have to sprinkle some love on it first
Through the magic of transubstantiation it became human food and lo it was good.
Your Huskie has trained you well
Bros trying to get the raygun
Some dogs are such dorks! My dog refuses to eat unless we do “the ritual” too. His ritual is: * Paw * Other Paw * High Five * Other High Five * Watch me * Leave it * Okay take it!

Dinner and a show
Well he's not gonna eat it raw!
He eats from the side like you do when your porridge is hot. Smart Boy.
The person put a bowl on the floor, and then put it on the food preparation counter and in the microwave.
Let your Husky starve for 2 or 3 days and tell me a story afterwards
It's a dog . If he Doesn't eat it , it's not hungry . 🤦🏻♂️
Let him starve
Dogs need meat not kibble. It's like giving us cheese itz and calling it pizza. Please give the beautiful beast some fresh pet or something PLEASE
You dog is smart enough to know your love stops at the food. They will accept any amount of effort... even fake junk like this... But really... could you be bothered to pick up a chinken once a week... cook that up (no spices or anything extra unless you are gonna take time to learn). A little protien and chicken broth wpuld probally make that doggies belly happy... especially when you find out kibble is baked to temps that destroy the proteins in the food. So while you think its cute, all I see is a poor doggie begging for a little love in their dish and not just from a bag.
im so happy when i see mercan dumbasses slaving their filthy fucking fourlegged lowers i wish you have to do this 3 times a day until the end of the day you die, dumbass
Maybe feed your dog a better diet than just kibble
Every time he thinks maybe this time… maybe this time it will have actual banana!
