In the classic "sham feeding" experiments with dogs, food did not reach their stomachs, but the dogs still stopped feeding after a while. However, they resumed feeding sooner than dogs whose food did reach their stomachs. This suggests that signals of satiety are not solely dependent on stomach distention, but also involve other cues.
