Recommended Answer:
Most puppies will not grow out of this habit. She has to know that jumping up on people will end up in a bad response from you. I trained my dog not to jump up on people on walks by a lot of repetition. When he jumped up on some one, I would tell him "off" and walk in the other direction. I did this exercise with my friends so they knew i wasn't being rude lol. I hope that this helps! Good luck training and don't give up...your hard work will pay off when she is full grown!

A Guide to Basic Dog Training Principles

• Take the suggestions of your previous answers... (I beleive it was the first two) and also... whenever she does listen and obey, definitely make sure you reward her by petting her, or giving her a treat, talking to her in a happy voice, or all of the above. She will learn that she gets rewarded when she obeys...


• teach her sit. when you are out walking and someone approaches she is not allowed to be petted or acknowledged unless her butt is on the ground. politely ask anyone she jumps on to turn their back and only greet her when sitting. she will get the message very quickly.
