Is There a Thief in Your Calumet Park House?

Many clients have a four-legged robber in their Calumet Park house.  Those of you with dogs that are more than 6 inches off the ground probably don’t worry about what we call counter surfing.  Dogs steal from the kitchen counters with food being number one and paper products number 2.  We’ve even heard of dogs that can pick pockets!

 

Robbery happens from end tables and sometimes even grabbing food from someone’s hand.  Another favorite is robbing shoes and toys or anything else on the floor or slightly higher.

 

There are some unique ways to end this behavior but it does take a little time and consistency.  Similar training can be done to prevent counter surfing or garbage rummaging, however any canine will go into garbage with what the dog considers “goodies.”  When it comes to a yummy Calumet Park garbage can, its best to put them where the dog can’t get at it.

 

Call dog behaviorist, Frank Allison for a solution to this problem.  Or, schedule a private session and have Frank experience first hand the "sandwich snatcher" in your Calumet Park home.
