    Hi folks,

    Are there any particular tips or tricks for training your pups not to jump up to steal food? Our chocolate lab is 5 months old and doing all the usual puppy things you would expect. We have put a gate across the kitchen and we also have a good space under the stairs that we are going to put a gate across specifically for mealtimes, which no doubt will take her some getting used to.

    While that may deal with the mealtimes themselves, are there any good training tips that teach them not to jump up at people if they have food? We don't have a problem with her sitting on the couch with us but at the moment it makes it tricky to enjoy a snack without fear of it being whizzed off at lightning speed.

    Thanks guys.
