Teach a Dog Not to Snatch food from your hands

You'll need to work with your dog everyday until he or she "gets it". Don't give your dog a treat any other way than what is stated below, except for food you put in his or her dish. Consistency and repetition are important in training.

Instead of handing the treat to your dog, make a fist around the treat.

Still holding the treat in your fist, palm down, allow your dog to sniff the back of your hand for a minute or two.

Roll your hand over and open your palm, allowing the dog to take the treat from your open palm.
