Your puppy jumps up...
You look at them.
You talk to them.
You push them down.
You pet them.
And without realizing it, your puppy may have just learned:
👉 “Jumping gets attention!”
For many puppies, attention itself is rewarding.
Instead, try giving attention when all four paws are on the floor.
Jumping = attention disappears.
Calm behaviour = attention returns.
Be consistent and make sure visitors follow the same rule.
Small changes like this can make a BIG difference. 🐾
