Why dogs are masters at stealing food

Talking Tip about why your dog steals food and what you can do about it

In our latest Talking Tip video, we chat about how to limit your dog’s food stealing opportunities

This week’s Talking Tip is all about the annoying habit of counter surfing.

I tell you a story about how some fish vanished to introduce the topic of dogs stealing food from counters. This is such a rewarding behaviour for dogs, who will then do it again and again and again…We then chat about what you can do about this frustrating problem and why forgetting to put food away just once can make things worse.

You can find today’s Talking Tip here along with all the others from previous weeks.

Please do write in and ask if you have a question you’d love us to answer. I want to make sure these Talking Tips are useful to you.

Enjoy!
