How can I train a spoiled dog not to beg at the table?

+1 vote
We adopted a dog from a friend who was no longer able to take care of her. She is a sweet thing, but has this annoying habit of begging at the table. Is there any way to get her to stop?

Train her the down and stay commands, increasing the time spent with stay. Temporarily put up a gate or barrier to keep her out of your eating area. Never offer her anything at the table. You can feed her a meal while you're eating in her special place. Or give her a puzzle toy with treats stuck in it to keep her occupied while you are eating.
