Addiction is a fairly specific neurobiological condition in which the dog must have a certain food or will go through withdraw symptoms. This is extremely rare.

However, dogs who are permitted to eat people food often find foods they prefer over their own kibble. When these dogs are then not allowed to have the people food any more, they can develop behavioral problems ranging from stealing food to begging to refusing to eat; these behaviors can generally be managed, but will always need to be considered when feeding the dog anything. Generally, owners who try to cut off people food to their dogs find it is extremely difficult, since the dogs are usually pretty good at making the owners feel guilty about not letting them have something any more.

Why can't small dogs eat human food?

Human food is rarely appropriate for dogs, no matter their size. However, small dogs have special nutritional needs because their stomachs are so small, so they need high nutrient density in their food. Human food does not meet their needs. In addition, dog toxins in human food, such as onions or chocolate, among many other things, will have a proportionately greater impact on a small dog than on a larger dog.
