How to Deal With a Jumping Dog

The most effective way for you to stop unwanted behaviours (like jumping) in your dog is also the easiest. All you have to do is simply ignore him whenever he jumps up. The idea is to give him the cold shoulder.  Withdraw all attention, even negative attention (so no yelling, shoving, or corrections).  Whenever your dog jumps up on you, turn your back straight away.  Since dogs understand body language a lot more clearly than they do the spoken word, you're going to be using your posture to convey the message that such behaviour isn't acceptable.  Fold your arms, turn your back, turn your face away from him and avert your eyes. 

The cold shoulder is a really effective way of communicating your displeasure to a dog.  He'll catch on very quickly. Without the encouragement of your attention and your reactions to his behaviour, he'll calm down very quickly.

I liked the way that SitStayFetch has more than one training technique detailed to allow you to pick and choose the techniques that best suit you and your dog.   Sara - Florida, USA
