[quote=Anonymous]Hmmmm....I have crate trained many dogs but always kept them in their crate past that age, until they were really trustworthy. Is there another location you can put him when you are gone? Bathroom? Mudroom? A more confined space? It doesn't mean he has to be in there at night. Do not under any circumstance leave him in the kitchen any longer. You are setting him up to fail with the counter surfing by leaving him alone there. And on that point-- I don't know how he started it but you need to stop it. Totally annoying but: 1. When you are home he should wear a lead which you are holding at all times. He can't be alone so even when you are in the kitchen he is with you properly behaved. 2. This means when you are gone he needs to be in the crate or confined to a space that isn't the kitchen. If you set him up to fail he will-- still a puppy. So make it easier for him to have better behavior. [/quote]
