Four on the Floor-Help with Jumping
Don’t like your dog jumping up? Resist punishing him/her, because this attention is precisely what your dog wants. The best thing to do is give your dog attention BEFORE he/she jumps. When they jump up, completely ignore them until they have 4 feet on the floor. At the EXACT moment that that occurs, have a party! Praise and show them that they don’t need to jump up to receive love. Be patient the first few times. Consistency and the speed of your attention as reward will show you the fruits of your labor. It works!

No te gusta que tu perro te salude brincando? Resiste regañarlo, pues precisamente lo que busca es atención. Mejor intenta darle atención ANTES de que brinque. En el momento que brinca, ignóralo por completo hasta que sus 4 patas toquen el piso. En el INSTANTE que ocurra, hazle una fiesta! Agáchate tú para que él no tenga que brincar para recibir cariñitos. Se paciente las primeras veces. La consistencia y rápidez al recompensar con tu atención te darán frutos notables.
