Here it is!
So I for one will not try to talk you out of puppy-bliss!
Another reason I’m steamed at y’all...not a single one of you tried to talk me out of getting this puppy.
She’s really not all that bad but she’ll stop at nothing for food.
First she managed to talk Jackie, my 4.5 yr old rescue dog, into getting into the trash can. Blanca-that’s the pup, can not reach it and before Blanca Jackie did not bother the trash.
Cleaned that up.
Somehow that puppy figured out how to climb up on a kitchen stool and now any food on the counter is fair game.
Of course I moved the stool and the trash can is now on top of the refrigerator.
Blanca got my lunch tray stored on the counter but alas, no food. She knows that sometimes there is food on that thing and she is really on her last legs...only minutes to live.
Yesterday I come home and she has a box of clementines all the hell over the house. Well it was on the counter, could be food, neither dog could figure out how to open a clementine...also known as Halos.
Today I come home and I had my hoody flung over the kitchen chair. Sometimes I store biscuits in the pockets of my hoody. The contents of my hoody pockets, now unrecognizable, were shredded all over the living room.
Don’t forget the not one but TWO boxes of dog biscuits, treats I give them during the morning exercise routine and stored (formerly) in a bag placed under a kitchen counter that Blanca could access.
Moved exercise bag up real high but left choir bag under same kitchen storage space.
Came home and the prayer book was in ten thousand shredded bits of paper all over the floor. The prayer book-missile- was covered with a plastic cover that resembled, as I ponder, the cover to the dog biscuit container so they kept shredding, figuring sooner or later they’d get to the dog biscuits.
Oh, before putting the exercise bag up high, now hanging from ceiling, I replaced with another bag that zipperd up, figuring they never figure out the zipper.
Two sets of dog teeth tore that new cloth exercise bag all to hell and again they ate an entire container of dog biscuits.
Now choir bag and morning exercise bag hang from the ceiling, all stools are far away from the kitchen counter and the trash, as I said, is on the refrigerator.
Blanca feels there is not enough food in the world and she’s liable not to make to the next day.
And Jackie the rescue dog? That was once such a good dog?
Well she tells Blanca to behave but then joins in the fun.
Well you know you COULD cage the dog while you are gone. She will mature and the problems will end as long as she is trained and properly disciplined.
Hang in there, she’ll grow out of it eventually. If nothing else, crate her for “time out.” I took in a sweet little dark brown, very Chocolate Lab-looking puppy two years ago and he turned out to be a terror when I was away. He’s grown out of it, knows what’s fair game for a chew toy and what’s not, finally. Excellent companion, very loving. Just too oral, always wanting something to chew on. That’s a Lab puppy, even though he’s not full bred he got that trait in spades. Daily throw sessions outdoors has helped keep him on an even keel, gets it out of his system. He’s very content afterwards.
Here it is!
So I for one will not try to talk you out of puppy-bliss!
Put her here when you're not at home. Use a treat to get her inside. And plenty of treats and loving when you get home. 
Check that Blanca can stand up and easily turn around. And be sure to leave water. Use one of these:
and you won't have to worry about water getting spilled.
Sometimes strategically placed mouse traps work wonders to discourage snoopy snouts.
