We've never had a dog counter surf and I think the reason is they have no idea what's up there.

They never get anything really from the counter. Or the table.

Just a general lack of knowledge and never been able to put two and two together.

However, they think the closed door of the pantry contains all the treasures on earth. They try to lead us over there all the time.

You can tell Pete has some history with a kitchen table but he's getting over it.

Just never give them anything they can source back to the counter or the table. Do it once and they might not forget.

I think.

None of my other pups ever did it, so I was totally taken off guard. And she's not grabbing food. We have a very strict policy, no handouts from the table. We made that mistake once with Haley and I regretted all along.

It's a piece of mail, or a sponge left too close, a dish towel, my granddaughters drawings from school. It could be anything. But I do agree with the special place for her to lay down in there because now she's trying to plop down right between the stove and sink, the worse spot she could be in.

She starts "Fun With Obedience" tonight. Looking forward to that.
