No matter how many times we nudge her off, pull her off or tell her no she doesn't learn. If you turn around she'll jump on the table looking for food or be licking crumbs.
She a tall girl for 80#My dog is 28" at the withers and weighs 80+#, she's a big girl! So for her, as WSGD says, she is counter height when keeping all 4 on the floor! I let her sniff, then just say "not for u", and that's always been enough.
I don't freak out when she sniffs, I just explain that it's not for her, and she has always seemed fine with that. I have and do leave meat to marinate on the counter frequently.
With your dog, it's about clear communication. Once they understand, corrections are never needed! It's a dialog you develop, or don't, that dictates that.
Focus on dialog with your dog, then problem behaviors just aren't! Win win!
Rogan is 28.5" I think and has trouble meeting girls that he doesn't tower over. He wants to know what your girl is doing Saturday night?People constantly ask how old he is! She's taller than most males we see.
