Vinny, my 2 year old, neutered male, just about always moans/crys for almost anything he wants from us.

Getting real old

The best advice I can give is to ignore the behavior, and to never reward it. If he learns that he gets what he wants from it, he'll keep doing it. The only whining I respond to is when Duke has to go out, and that is now really the only time he whines.

Pretty much what DukeofBaldwin said. Ignore the whining. I'm guessing at some point he got what he wanted because of this behavior. Someone usually gives in. lol

I totally get it. Instead of the Chewbacca talking boxers are known for - Emmett kind of moans and whines instead. But the worst thing he does is throw his food dish around on the floor pawing at it for food between meals. He also picks up his water bowl and drops it repeatedly when he drinks it to the last drop for more. Silly

boxers. It is hard not to give in to such antics.
