Dog taking food
Discussion
Had a few conversations with my dog and he seemed better but started again.
Can't leave anything within reach as it be gone. Yesterday bought some fav cookies but left them just in reach , (unpacking oversight) this morning all gone
No of my other dogs ever done this,
So wonder what have you lost?

English setter, greediest dog I've ever had.
I'll list the major steals but loads more, if i'm stupid enough to leave it out or in the warming drawer (he's learnt to open it) he'll have it.
I have to lock the utility room as he has learnt how to open drawers
At work, bins are tipped over and scavenged, pack lunches left out in tupperware are fair game
3 loaves of bread
2 x 12oz steaks
2lb cheese
20 sausages
I've had gorden setters, currently have irish and english setters and a cockerpoo. None come close to Dr watson my english setter for pure greed

I’ve m9sy got her out of it but she’s a stubborn bh in more ways than one. Bloody Labrador’s.
We had one when I was a boy that ate all the grease off a wagons fifth wheel and a bird that knocked itself out on the window (not at the same time).

Not me, but a Greyhound of my parents. Mum cooking and had just taken a crumble out the oven, when there was a knock at the door. She left the crumble on the worktop, came back to find a tin on the floor, minus the pudding.
I never thought that of greyhounds until my neighbours recent adopted greyhound I learnt is one of the most cunning food thieves I've ever met. The long neck has some serious reach!
) in a few minutes while our backs were turned. He even licked the plates so clean, we actually wondered if there was anything there to start with.Meat, fish, he once got hold of a chocolate eclairs which I managed to get out of his jaws with considerable effort oh and he’s had a chicken skewer from the kebab shop I got most of the stick there was no way I was getting and chicken. Jack Russel stray from Cyprus more used to pizzas out of bins than our food and stty weather.

Labrador. Eats anything and everything, including socks.
Cannot leave any food in reach or it will be eaten or at least licked if not fully in his reach. Once ate a tin full of freshly made muffins.
Cannot change him, tried in vain. He's just a greedy bd. 
That’s labs for you. Can be chunky if you don’t keep an eye on them. Greedy buggers. Cannot leave any food in reach or it will be eaten or at least licked if not fully in his reach. Once ate a tin full of freshly made muffins.

Wife’s knickers
Kids socks
Whole tub flora.
All polished off by our beautiful old border collie. We acquired him when he was 10 years old and going blind when our next door farmer basically threw him out because he couldn’t work any more. Nasty man.
He lived another 8 years and was simply the best dog ever. He ate loads of stuff at first, mainly because he had never been inside a house before, once he settled down he stopped thieving.

When I was a kid we had a border collie who knocked a frying pan full of bacon off the stove and scoffed the lot. I think she got covered in hot grease and probably got clouted by the falling frying pan, I think the dog thought it was worth it though.
We later had a black chow-chow who was a bugger for cheese, she stole a whole block of cheddar off the table.

Yet mine will not touch food left out in the house.He'll sit next to something he wants but will not touch it. If I'm cooking and drop something he won't touch it unless I tell him he can have it.
