Easy ideas to stop your dogs counter surfing!

7/12/2011

The point of these homemade mechanisms is to startle your dog out of jumping on the counter without you being available in the same room. (For example, if your dog has free range of the house and you are reading a book/watching tv)
You can certainly teach your dog to stay off of the counters while you are in the same room, but this is an alternative method if you have a smart dog who knows what they can get away with when you're not around.

My name is Kim. I've grown up in this beautiful place we call Marquette, MI. I have always been a lover of animals and my love for them has only grown stronger with age. I love all animals from mice to cows, to pigs and frogs. Of course as dogs are the ones living most closely among us they have become my passion. I have been in the dog business since 2009 with a focus on dog training since 2010 when I completed my career diploma in Dog Obedience Trainer/Instructor from Penn Foster Career School. I worked on building my knowledge and experience for the next 4 years until I sat for my first formal certification in 2014. In building of those credentials I continued with the skills portion in 2015 earning the titel Certified Professional Dog Trainer-Knowledge and Skills Assessed (CPDT-KSA)
My husband Rick and I have owned and operated TacoMo Dog Training since 2010 and are in the process of transitioning to TacoMo Dog Co. as we have officially added grooming as of 2022.
TacoMo was the recall word for our first 2 dogs Rico aka Taco, and Morzy aka Mo. We have since loved and lost both of them in 2020 and sadly a puppy in 2019. We now are loved by our current crazies Tiramisu aka Misu a Mini American Shepherd born 2019 and Goji and small Australian Shepherd born 2020.
We also have a daughter born in 2017 who is always keeping us on our toes. Find us on Facebook, Instagram and even Tiktok!

Morzy and Rico who started it all!
