Question:
When greeting your dog if you use an exciting voice (like most people do) this gets her excited and she jumps. Try walking in and not saying anything to her,till you are ready to greet her.. If she ... still jumps you can use a stearn voice not yelling and place your hand flat out palm down towards her head and say NO Down. If she is a big dog that could possibility knock you over than I would get some obedience training for her. But most important IF YOU ENTER ALL EXCITED YOU CAN ONLY EXPECT THE DOG TO BE LIKE THIS. Good Luck:)Answer:
The reason why your dog jumps on you is that she is happy to see you. If you want her to stop you'll have to command her to do so start w/the basics steps1. kneel down next to her and place your left hand under her jaw and your right hand on her back side near her tail and at the same time tell her to sit while you push down on her back side (you'll have to do this repeatedly till she learns on her own or until she understands the command)
2, Once she understands the command for sit now you'll have to teach her the command for "stay" OK now she understands the word for sit the next step is to stand up (in front of her) hold doesn't matter what are you use, palm up (facing towards her) and keep holding it out and slowly walk backwards while repeating the word "stay" this is important while doing these commands always say her name
3. this should have been the first command the word "down" just tell her down (like down her name down) and use a firm but not to harsh of a voice one she'll listen to
Do all of these command and you'll have a well trained dog and oh yeah don't forget to give her a reward like a treat for obeying you it takes a lot of practice and patients to train a dog. GL
