While your puppy is eating, be sure to pet them, talk to them, and touch them while they are eating. They may get annoyed with you at first, but if you keep doing this while they are eating, eventually they will be comfortable being touched and interacted with while they eat.

As seen, dog owners should avoid poking, pushing or petting a dog while eating for several reasons: it's annoying, it may evoke defensive aggression and the dog may misinterpret the dog owners' intent.
