Don't ask me to tell you what Tim's method was to get back things that Ivy snatched when she was younger. His reaction made our situation worse, I am convinced. Let's just say one incident involved a counter, a chunk of steak, one couch, a large cushion, a very angry human and an even angrier dog…ugh...
Oh man… I had a similar incident with a piece of cheesecake in our first month together. Left it on a barstool near the sofa and Tucker knocked it on the floor and was halfway through it when I caught him. The good news is that I'm now able to leave food within Tucker reach and he won't go near it... Man, I really wanted that cheesecake, too... :mad: (Some might laugh, some might think I'm as ass, but the punishment for this indecression was putting him out on the balcony and subsequently throwing the rest of the cheesecake at him. He looked quite funny with bits of cheesecake all over him. He was pissed at first but then he didn't mind, he managed to get the whole piece, he just had to lick the second half of it off of himself...)
I really think I've made a lot of progress. Old habits include stealing cheesecake, running the roll of toilet paper, getting into bathroom garbage, taking q-tips, pens, pencils, and any other small item off of the edge of my dresser and the bathroom counter, digging on the sofa and on my bed and severe begging... He doesn't do ANY of this anymore. The weird thing is that he'll do it when I have company. For some reason he associates company with 'all rules don't apply today'. He'll take the TP, rifle through the garbage, rifle through their suitcase, etc. He's not BAD with that, I can always tell him to stop and he pretty much does.... But it's still slightly annoying when you tell people not to leave stuff at the edge of counters or leave their suitcase open and then you catch the last moment of your dog swallowing a q-tip...

Wow that sounds like our tri. I keep hearing on how tri's are more naughty than any other color.

I wish someone would have told ME that prior to adoption. :rolleyes: But in reality, when I set my mind to adopting a potential devil, I had very limited 'non-negotiables'. They were 'non-destructive indoors', 'is house trained' and 'under 5 years old'. I really wanted a black and white, I think they are unusual and a bit uncommon, but the few that were available on BRAT were highly destructive. However, Tucker looks just like "BJ", my childhood B. I loved that dog… They certainly do leave an impression.

Yes, IMO… Tri's are "wicked"... but in a fun way...

that's just adorable, it's these times that erases the evil they do. They know it too!
Or dogs "turn it on" when the want. they know how to push our buttons.
