I adopted a 3 year old lab/husky mix from a shelter and while she is well behaved and is picking up well on her commands like sit and stay, she has a problem with stealing food off the counters. She never really eats what she knocks off but she makes huge messes. She somehow managed to take 2 donuts out of a box of a dozen kept the box closed too but we found the 2 donuts half eaten on the floor and she was just really playing with them. She had knocked pies off and didn't even lick any of it. She has obviously been mistreated in her past so we do not want to yell at her and I am not sure what to do to stop this habit. We have yet to catch her doing she only does it when we are not home.

just be lucky your not dealing with a dog who opens the refrigerator ! Not to mention she tried to get locks off and took the whole door off :/ also a husky lab! Good luck with your food stealer!!
