Dog going on the living room coffee table
My dog constantly goes on the living room coffee table to look for food or
items to take and play with, and even though we catch him in the act and take him down and say "no!" he does this anyway, in fact he often does it again right after I say "no!" and I wind up yelling alot. It's very frustrating. I'm not sure how to punish him, sometime I put him away when he does this, but even that seems ineffective. Does anybody have any suggestions for dealing with this behavior? |

For example (I cut and pasted one of Lee's x's - thanks Lee! :}, tinfoil, flypaper, bubble wrap. After the habit is broken, you can remove the material.
