Yep, I have. Cooper will take stuff, not necessarily food, that he is not supposed to have (and he knows it) and will run upstairs under the bed. He has snapped at me when I reach under there to take it. Now when this happens, I tell him BEFORE I reach under there, NO Cooper!! in my "I mean it" voice and he will walk away from it and then I take it. You can't let them think they are the boss, or the behavior will get worse. I think this is instinctive with them, and you just have to break them of it by not letting them get away with it.
