Terminology poll: ____ the watchdog
Psi:
You 'feed' the watchdog in only one location in code.
If you need to do something that may take some time you give him a 'snack'
You define a maximum number of snacks the dog can eat before his meal
HowdyPartner:
Pet / feed.

(Week before last I was in a maze of twisty STM32 timer documentation, not getting the results I wanted or expected. Now, thankfully, sorted. Warning for the uninitiated - don't expect STM32 timer interrupts to preserve the ordering of wraparound and capture on the same timer if the interrupts are raised in very close proximity to each other.)
