As for pre-rinsing the manual says nothing about that except if you don't
plan to wash for a long time you should run a rinse cycle on the machine. *
All it says is:

"Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other
hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from containers before
washing."

....and that is done by PRE-RINSING the dishes off into the garbage
disposal in most areas. Dog hair counts as a hard item.
