Default RE: training a dog tips

The worst part of teaching them not to jump is your friends coming over and letting them. You tell your pup to get down and they say" oh no it's alright " can ruin every thing you are trying to teach them. So they need to understand what you are trying todo in the begining. I also recomend what Don said as well. Here we have no clases closer than 100 miles from here so I have to resort to different ways of teaching. I believe in making a game out of it to keep the pups interest up. When the pup does good let your pup know this. If not doing good give up for a little while and try again later. Also keep it down to 15-20 minutes at a time so as not to confuse your pup. Good Luck.
