Does anyone have a dog (maybe Suzanne?) who jumps on people constantly? One of our dogs drives us crazy with jumping on people. Its ridiculous now and I cannot make him stop! He drives me nuts with it.
Anyone have any advice on how to make it stop? Thanks in advance ladies!

I always keep the lease on her when people come over, cause she pretty much only jumps the first 10 minutes or so, so i hold her on the leash and when she tries i say NO... and then once she is not so excited i let her go... it works ok for me.. try it...

I bought a 'no-Jump' harness from fostersandsmith.com.. it worked really well & now all I have to do is hold up the harness & my dog behaves.

I feel so bad but this dog is just a nut! I love him but dont see him being able to be around a baby in the future and I dont know how im gonna give him up.
Its so sad but I think we have to try to start looking, he needs wide open spaces to get all his energy out. He is just so wild!

Have you guys tried home training?
My dog is pretty crazy too and i also think about what happens when we have kids, but i notice as she gets older she is not so crazy anymore, she used to be a TYRANT...
dont give up the dog..

We use a squirt bottle with water in it...whenever the dogs jump on someone, they get a squirt of water...now, all they have to do is see that bottle and they don't jump. It worked very quickly...only problem..you have to squirt them when they're jumping, not after, so you have to walk around with that bottle for a bit.

Re: Jumping dogs...help!
we brought our dog to a trainer and it helped alot. Our puppy jumped all over everyone and use to run into their legs almost knocking them down and the training stopped all of that. Now she sits until we give her to ok to greet the guests. : )
