When it comes to leftover food found in the trash, just about every dog will enjoy devouring it as much as they would when eating fresh food in their bowl. Regardless of cleanliness, it is all a feast to your dog!
Either way, some dogs will tend to eat as fast as they possibly can. There is a genetic reason for this and that is due dogs’ ancestors never having food to waste. When food is scarce, as it was for dogs of the wild, the only concern an animal has is to gobble up as much as possible.
Although many domesticated dogs of today may eat their food slowly without a care in the world about the food running out, their predecessors did not have this luxury. They knew that if they came upon food and didn’t eat it right away, it would probably be gone with the blink of an eye. This behavioral characteristic is still dominant in many dogs today.
