Question
How do I get my dog to stop going thru trash and garbage cans.   When I leave home and come back she has garbage stroll all over kitchen and dining room and she also likes to take paper towels out of bathroom trash can.  Do I need to enroll her in behavior training?

Answer
How is your dog getting to the garbage?  Any dog will take a shot at "available" garbage and you're just lucky you haven't had a bout of diarreah because of it.

Put the garbage where she can't get at it.  Close the bathroom door.

And all dogs need training.
