I once had a girlfriend whose 20-pound cat was a counter-surfer. The behavior is not limited to dogs.

It had little to do with discipline and everything to do with the fact that Ridgies are food thieves. Read the breed descriptions. They call it “counter-surfing.” We call it “stealing food.”

However, a smaller canine (or a better trained one) would not have caused as much aggravation. Besides, the dog looks like some kind of Ridgback, and Ridgies are nearly wild anyway.
