Hi Folk's

My 16 week female puppy Sadie is making a habit of jumping up on the kitchen counter and trying to snatch some food. Have tried correcting her with off command with some success. The problem is if she see's me she won't jump but my wife who is with most of the day can't get her to stop. Today while my wife was making her dinner she jumped up and knocked all her food all over the kitchen, Wife none to pleased.

Any suggestions welcome.

one, keep knocking her down trying not to make a big deal out of it. DO NOT treat the pup after for sitting or it becomes a game of "I jump up, then sit then get a treat".

two, perhaps start a "yummy spot" it is a spot that the pup must sit at in order to get a treat. If it is ever to get a tid bit while your wife cooks, it will be when the pup is calm in it's yummy spot.
