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 Lower
Button (Spray Correction) and give the
command "Sit."
3. Release the Lower Button (Spray Correction)
immediately once your pet is sitting, and
verbally praise him.
4. If your pet ignores the spray correction,
increase the Spray Level by 1.
5. Practice this exercise in several different areas
and use different people for distractions.
