When we came home yesterday he went into zoomy mode. He dropped the knife as he lapped the lower level a few times. We didn’t chase him because it only reinforces the behavior.
The first few times he chewed on the knives we made all sorts of fun reactions and chased him. I remember hearing “Mom, the dog’s got a knife again” and realized it was Keplers way of getting our attention. Locking the knives up only partially helps because he will run by the dishwasher to snag one or go through any dishes in the sink.
Hubby put dog in crate before we left but didn’t check the second door.
