If you're chopping vegetables in the kitchen they're there. They engage in wishful thinking because they know there is a high probability of raw vegetables like potatoes, tomatoes, broccoli and carrots - especially carrots - will hit the floor for them to scavenge.
It's OK to be careless with these types of veggies because they're a healthy, tasty, snack and are low in calories.
The other problem is if the girls are loose in the yard and not closely supervised they will raid the garden and filch a tomato or a green bean - especially the green beans. I was picking green beans the other day and found several plants sporting what I call "dog beans".

Half of it on the plant and half gone.
Since Labs do not have opposable thumbs suited to picking their beans they have to settle for a nip here and a bite there. Not worth the expenditure of a huge dose of discipline. I've got beans to burn.
The garden in all its glory...
Vive le Jardin Magnifique!
