I never leave food out - he can find it anywhere - defrosting has become a 
chore!

  so I also have 2 labradoodles that are just over 2.
  The male jumps on the bar stools to jump on the
  counter. He is 45 pounds and cruises the counters. He
  has bad hips but it does not stop him when it comes to
  a butter dish or left overs. The female hides when he
  does this so she does not get into trouble, Even if he
  gets in trouble he does not remember the next day. We
  have given up and try to leave NO food out. he too can
  open the cabinet with the child safety lock to get to
  the trash. It is like having another child in the
  house. Have fun!
