Whine for table scraps, say (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

beg

(Other definitions for beg that I've seen before include "Plead, implore" , "Plead as for help" , "Beseech or ask for charity" , "Implore or cadge" , "Get by any means - . . ., borrow or steal" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times.
