Counter Surfing
Episode 27
Monday, 8 June, 2026
Counter surfing is 100% natural for a dog; and 100% frustrating for that dog's human!

But be sure to stay for the second half, when we dive into a much more satisfying and long-lasting way to deal with an incorrigible counter surfer: provide "legal" foraging activities. Rather than forbidding the fundamental canine desire to forage for food, encourage it. There are lots of fun and easy ways to give dogs everyday chances to find their own food. Do that enough, and you'll find those counters lose their allure.
