Eliminating Unwanted Behaviour
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 behaviour. That means every time
your pet jumps on someone, he should be reprimanded or redirected to an alternate and
acceptable behaviour for which he can receive praise.
Note: It is best if your pet first understands the “Sit” command.
1. Choose your pet’s Recognition Level.
2. As soon as your pet lifts his paws off the ground to jump on you, press the Vibration
Button and give the command “Sit.”
3. Release the Vibration Button immediately once your pet is sitting, and verbally
praise him.
4. If your pet ignores the Vibration Stimulation, increase the level by 1.
5. Practice this exercise in several different areas and use different people for distractions.
