Every time you have visitors, does your dog jump on them? Normally, if he acts that way with us, usually nothing happens. But of course, people who come home in principle dislike it enough that a ball of hair shows its joy by jumping on them; so we have no choice but to remedy it.
To help you, I'm going to tell you how to prevent my dog from jumping on people. Take note.
First of all, we have to know a little about canine body language. In this way, we can act before the dog jumps. So, let's know what do we have to look at to avoid this situation:
- It goes straight to you: respectful dogs often make small curves before coming to the side of another animal or person. If he forms a straight line, it is because he is overconfident, or because he is simply so glad to see you that he has forgotten his manners.
- His mouth is slightly open: Your teeth will show a little, and you may have your tongue sticking out. It is the most common sign of joy (or tiredness, as the case may be).
- Wags his tail happily: very happy dogs may wag their tails from side to side.
If your furry starts behaving like this every time he sees someone, he will probably end up jumping on him. How to teach him not to do it?
Actually, it is very easy: we just have to turn your back. He will get the message straight away, you'll see. This is so because, every time a dog approaches them that is too eager to play, they also turn their backs on it, or go elsewhere. But of course, by turning around we will not be able to solve the whole problem, because the people who are going to see you, surely also want to go inside.
So, you have to tell them to turn their backs on the dog first, and then when it has calmed down, then they can go inside. without looking at him, talking to him or touching him.
It may take more or less time to get her to learn it, but in the end the work is worth it.
