Secrets to Dog Training Review - Is it Really the Best Dog Training Program?
Recommended Answer:
When he comes running into you, stand straight and lean your body forward into the dog...You will be taking up HIS space and he will stop before he gets to you
Proven Dog Training Methods
- Turn to your side or turn your back on him until he calms down...Just try to ignore him not talk to him or touch him. Keep doing this until he stops jumping on you.
- I put my knee in their chest, not with a kick or with any force, but just enough to annoy them about the same way they are annoying you.

You can use a verbal that can startle them and immediately ask for a sit. Focus on a lot of "sit" training in any situation with these dogs and reward them for doing it with a treat.
You can get a "compressed air can" (usually sold at computer or camera stores) and the second they jump - press the button for a quick blast of air near them - not at them.

They should sit and wait for their foods bowls to go down with food, they should sit and wait when you enter a door or room, they should sit and wait before doing in or out of doors.
Good luck - The others have the right idea - either a knee up to protect yourself or better, just turn your back. You can also lightly tread on toes ... not hard! Insist that they both sit when you walk in - reward with praise and wee treats - liver biscotti or dried liver treats are good. Don't let them have their meals until they sit. Don't let them go for a walk until they sit. If they want ANYTHING - make them sit for it. Toys, affection, food, etc. After sit - it's easy to do "down" - and "heel" - keep treats in your pocket and reward good behavior - ignore mistakes.
- When he jumps, turn around and completely ignore him. Even pushing him off you or saying "No" gives him the attention he wants.
Or, you could face him when he jumps and - gently! - bump his chest with your knee. Don't do it hard and don't hurt him, but he'll get the picture after a few jumps. - Tell your "friend" not to be a cheap bastard, and get services from a qualified dog walker/sitter.
Many people find it an easy way out to dump their dogs on friends (as long it's not too costly) - many dog training books i have read say to put a knee to dog's chest with a firm "no" hope it helps
- Ignore him when he jumps on you, turn your back on him and completely ignore him. He will get the idea after a few jumps.
- When he jumps on you, step forward into him so he HAS to get down and back up. He should learn very quickly with this method.
Good luck! - I URGE YOU TO TRY THIS WITH THE OWNER NEAR-
my border collie was a jumper- and I met someone (Sue) who told me to hold up my knee when she approached - not really high, just to kinda let her know to stop. When she went to jump, her knee was just at Dixies chest . She always spoke to her AFTER she was in sit position. Worked for Sue and Dixie. I got lucky, Dixie outgrew the jumping on people.
check out this website - it has info that has helped me, maybe there will be some for you...

good luck! I think it is a great favor you do for your friend- it is hard to find someone you trust your animals with! - Every time the dog jumps on you, put your knee into him. Don't kick him, just throw your knee upward...he runs into the knee. Just do it every time and even try to entice him to do it so that you can train him!

For many resources on several topics about dogs. - when the dog begins to jump on you bring your knee up into it's chest just as a block not a kick and say no.
- one thing to try that's fast is watch for the body tension that precedes jumping. When you see it order a 'sit'. If the dog jumps lift your leg slightly and bump the dog's chest with your knee or thigh. Simultaneously, push a palm near the dog's face away from you and give a sharp command: ‘off!' - of if the owner has a command for this use it instead. ('Down' is a separate behavior)
The raised knee helps to keep the dog off and puts it off balance. The hand near the face obscures its vision and discourages a repeat jump. Working with a partner can be very useful with this approach.
