For the first three days when this stray dog appeared at our door, we didn’t know what to do, so we didn’t feed her right away, as we had to return stateside in a few weeks. But she was persistent and stayed. Sleeping outside and following anyone who was outside. On the third day our neighbors said “feed her and then we will take her”. So I did just that. Boy I have never seen a dog leap so high straight up in the air with the arrival of her food bowl. 4-5 foot leaps straight up. On the second day I said “ok, we will have none of that jumping. You will sit quietly and wait for your food.” To my utter surprise I only had to teach her this once and thereafter she waited patiently for her food bowl until with her eyes were on mine and my hands I gave her the go ahead.
