 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.

Thanks for the nice blog. It was very useful for me. Keep sharing such ideas in the future as well. This was actually what I was looking for, and I am glad to come here! Thanks for sharing the information with us. http://www.happykennels.com 9/16/2017 02:03:18 am
It is very irritating for me when my dog always jumps on our counter. Once I cooked lasagna and he jumped over the counter and ate all of it on the floor. I was so pissed that day and didn’t let him in the house the whole day. Another situation was when it was raining so hard my dog came outside to play and then he went inside the house so wet and full of mud in his feet. I was at the counter reading and then he jumped on the counter to check for food. It was a hassle for me to clean up all the mess he made. 1/20/2016 12:12:00 pm

As a Newbie, I am permanently exploring online for articles that can be of assistance to me. Thank you
No matter whether your pet is injured, ill or just needing some routine veterinary care, you'll need a good animal hospital that is able to provide appropriate veterinary attention. Before you decide to take your pet to a particular animal hospital, it's always a good idea to look into various things. Leave a Reply. |
AuthorMy 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 worked for a kennel for 2+ years, and I loved caring for the dogs all day. Being a kennel worker significantly benefited me while I was studying dogs however the time came to follow my calling. In April 2010 I graduated with my diploma in Dog Obedience Trainer/Instructor from Penn Foster Career School, and have since begun building my experience in the field. I am currently owned (along side my husband Rick -who is also in the dog business as a groomer, and plays an active part in TacoMo as well) by 2 dogs named Rico Suave a 50lb adorable mix (His DNA came back as one parent being 1/2 Cocker Spaniel, 1/4 Pomeranian, & 1/4 Dachshund, the other parent while not confirmed is potentially an English Shepherd which honestly makes the most sense) and Smorzy a 50% Australian Shepherd/50%Shetland Sheepdog. They are a crazy duo and are not perfect by any means but I love having the tools to control their behavior whenever I need to. I love my dogs so much that TacoMo was named after them (Rico's nickname is Taco & Smorzy's is MoMo)! You'll learn by meeting me or reading my posts that while I can be a quiet person, I can also babble on forever!
