Eliminating Unwanted Behavior
Jumping Up
Pets typically jump up to get attention. If you do not want your pet to jump on
you, then friends or members of the family should not encourage this behavior.
That means every time your pet jumps on someone, he should be reprimanded
or redirected to an alternate and acceptable behavior, for which he can receive
praise.
Note: It is best if your pet first understands the "Sit" command.
1. As soon as your pet lifts his paws off the ground to jump on you, press the
Stimulation Button and give the command "Sit."
2. Release the Stimulation Button immediately once your pet is sitting, and verbally
praise him.
