Put a leash on your dog so he/she can not get his paws on you to begin with.


Reward Good Behavior: Whenever your dog stays calm and stops jumping, all for on the floor reward them with a treat or praise.


Do Not Encourage Jumps: Avoid giving your dog attention when they jump up as this can encourage the behavior.

With consistent training and patience, your pup should eventually learn that jumping up is not allowed.
