Damned four-legged fiend strikes again!

This time the casualties were a bag and a half of Pepperidge English muffins plus most of a bar of Swiss dark chocolate with orange.

This is getting ridiculous. I have no problem with giving the poodle an occasional apple, but this counter surfing is getting to be a bit much. That's probably $15 in groceries in less than a week and leaves me with nothing for breakfast as my normal breakfast is one English muffin with peanut butter on it. I've no rice milk for cereal, so I guess it's unthaw the last of my organic chicken apple sausage and finish off the eggs.

Decidedly not a happy camper.

Ours stay in their crates when we're not home. Our oldest Pap likes to chew electrical cords. We've found it safer to keep them confined. But my husband and I work different schedules, so they don't have to stay in the crates for extended periods.

We currently don't have a crate, don't know how the dog would react. She was born/raised by breeders, so it might work ok. But a lot of her mischef happens when one or both of us is here and asleep, so I don't know if crating would help.

Fortunately she doesn't (YET!) chew on things like electrical cords or network cables.

A lot of our foster dogs aren't crate trained when we get them. That's one of the first things we work on. This last one whined a lot about it, but now he runs into his crate without any problem, because he knows he'll get a treat, and he has special toys in there.
