Why do dogs jump up?
- Many dogs are compulsive greeters
- Dogs that know each other often greet one-another with a ‘high ten'
- Often jumping up has been reinforced by owners as a puppy
- To get attention
- To lick at your face in appeasement
- To invade your space.
How NOT to fix this problem
Kneeing the dog in the chest
Not only does this method not work, it is downright dangerous and could crack a rib or otherwise injure or even kill your dog.......
