If I forgot to give my boy an earned reward treat, he would look right at me, and stomp his paw. If that didn't immediately produce results, he would lift his leg higher, and stomp his paw again. He never did that to beg, he only did that when he thought that he was being cheated.
Are dogs capable of jealousy?

Oh yes they can! When I first brought Shay in, she was so jealous she would have nothing to do with me or Shay.. But eventually she warmed up and now they are best friends!

Not only are dogs capable of jealousy, they are also capable of selflessness.
