Trouble in Newfieland

It seems that our youngest Newfie, who is almost 3 years old has gone back to some very bad habits that he arrived at our house with.   He was a counter shopper....food his number one priority in life.  After becoming a part of our household at 13 months, he quickly ended his food shopping, which also include hair brushes, toilet paper, paper towels and any gadgets left on counters.  Now, he was not a chewer, and did not distroy items, but he loves his food and was out of control with helping himself to anything edible.   Quickly, I mean within days of arriving he improved vastly, where you could actually leave the room with food out and he would only stare at it.   Now, he has gone back to his earlier ways.   Yesterday after perfectly preparing burgers for the grill, I stepped out the back door to check the coals.   Only moments later, I remember that Yogi was alone in the kitchen!   Through the back door I went, just in time to find him cleaning the crumbs of raw burger from the plate on the counter!   Yes, he consumed 5 raw hamburgers in only seconds!  Today I come home to find that he has eaten the last two rice cakes from the bag which was on the counter!   He is in big trouble in our household!   It doesn't help that his eye level is above counter level, so he sees everything!   He is otherwise the sweetest, most laid back Newfie I have ever met.   Back to page one we are going with the counter shopping, wish us well!   He is now laying in the corner by himself, feelings hurt, trying to keep a low profile.  This has never been a problem with our oldest Newfie, he will not touch a plate of burgers, even on the coffee table.  Now he will as much as almost touch them with his nose, but will not take!  I'll keep you posted on our progress!
