How can I get my dog to stop jumping?
My 1 year old puppy jumps constantly -- on my husband and I first thing in the morning, on strangers on walks (particularly if a runner runs by), when he greets people or wants attention, etc. He's super friendly and affectionate and always just wants to play, but it's pretty off-putting (particularly to strangers!) and we need to figure out how to train him not to jump so much. Does anyone have training tips? We've tried turning our backs every time he jumps and it doesn't seem to have an impact. Thank you!!
WIth training, the thing is to think of what you do want vs what you don't want. So for example sit: Do not give any attention for a jumping dog, you can slide to the other side, quick turn your side where they slip off. Ask for a sit, praise the sit. Praise and Reinforce what you want, ignore the negative.
