I think I've found it.
Today, Eska may have chewed her way through the garbage and hopped her way into the sink for the very last time (or almost). To punish her crimes, I tied her (by her leash) to the closet door in the unlit rear section of my apartment with no treats, no toys, no contact, no attention.
She hated it - whined for thirty minutes. When she had been quiet for ten, I let her go and gave her a stern talking-to. Now, she is on my bed in fully repentant mode.
We shall see how long this good behaviour lasts. I am fully prepared to punish again, should the need to arise.
