Well I'm afraid I won't be much help. Lacey has always been a counter surfer and Layla seems to want to be one too. Since Laceys knee surguries she doesn't like to stand on her back legs too much so she doesn't do it much anymore. We are now trying to teach Layla not to do it. We just push her off the counter and pretty much ignore her.
I hope Malones tummy is ok.
