Do you give your dogs dog treats?

I don’t give him treats. Rick likes to give him treats directly from his and we get into some serious disagreement about this. My rule is I never feed the dog anything directly from my hand. If I want to give him some leftover food, I’ll put it in his food bowl.
Rick, on the other hand, thinks that giving treats or food from his hand is some sort of bonding thing. The result is Cato quickly learned to beg from Rick (which pisses Rick off to no end….he doesn’t see that he created the behavior,) but he doesn’t beg from me.
If I were to give him treats it would be in his food bowl. My dogs have access to food and water 24/7, so why would he need treats? He gets the occasional bonus food by surprise. The other day it was the fatty parts off of a rib eye steak. Yum. But he has no idea it came from me.

Do you give your dogs treats? Why or why not?
