German Shepherd Jumping Problem
Picture a big German Shepherd jumping on you. The idea of a 95-pound, overly excited German Shepherd (who doesn’t know its own strength) playfully jumping on me or one of my kids is terrifying! German Shepherds don’t know their size and strength. Small dogs shouldn’t be allowed to jump on people either. If you want to stop your German Shepherd from jumping on you or your guests, you’ve got to train him using the right techniques. I’ll show you how toprevent German Shepherd jumping forever.
Tip #1 – Don’t Give Mixed Messages
Stopping German Shepherd jumping is easy. In fact, the art of dog training is easy as pie. Obedience training is about lavishly praising your dog when he does something good, and punishinig him when he does something bad. Obedience training boils down to two things. First, you must establish and promote a proper relationship between you and your dog.
Second you must communicate in a way that your dog understands. In other words, your commands must have meaning. You can’t afford to give your dog mixed signals when training him. Either it’s okay for him to chew on your shoes or not.
Tip #2 – Employ Methods That Work in Harmony With Your Dog’s Instincts
Some people think obedience training goes against a dog’s natural instincts. Some people also think that dog training will break a dog’s spirit. For instance, if jumping comes naturally to a dog, why break him out of the habit? The reasons are obvious. A 90-pound German Shepherd jumping on you can cause serious injuries.
As a matter of fact, dog obedience training is very much aligned with a dog’s natural drives and instincts. By employing methods very much aligned with a dog’s natural instincts, you will enhance your dog’s personality. You’ll also be providing your dog with boundaries wherein he can thrive and be happy.
Tip #3 – Stop German Shepherd Jumping – Knee To Chest Method
When I visit my neighbor and her German Shepherd jumps on me, she somewhat embarrassingly says to me, “My dog is really, trained, he just likes to jump on people.” A dog that jumps on you is not a trained dog. The question is, how do you stop German Shepherd jumping?
If you apply the technique correctly, the knee to chest method works miracles. Here’s how to do it:
When your German Shepherd jumps, jerk your knee up and make sure your knee hits him squarely in the chest making a “thump” sound. I know it sounds cruel. However, if you don’t do it hard enough, the motivational correction will not take effect.
Common mistakes people make when using the knee to chest method is that they lean to the side. The knee never hits the dog squarely in the chest. Also, the knee does not hit the dog in the chest with enough impact to make him stop. I’m not saying you should injure the dog, but it should be hard enough for you to hear a thump sound.
Tip #4 – Lean Back and Tap Your Chest
To ensure that you’re employing the knee to chest correctly, test your German Shepherd. Lean back and tap your chest. You want to tempt your dog to jump up again. This is crucial. Your dog now gets to decide if it’s worth getting a correction (the knee in his chest) or to sit there and get praise. If you’ve employed the correction correctly, you’ll only have to do this 3 or 4 times before your dog gets the message.
Tip #5 – Employ The Help of Friends
To maximize your dog training efforts with the knee to chest method, enlist the help of your friends. Get 4 or 5 of your friends together. . Make sure your friends employ the technique correctly or else all your efforts will be undone. When your dog sees that he gets correction from 5 different people for jumping on them, it will solidify his obedience. You’ll know that you’ve done your job correctly.
Here is an interesting by-product of the knee to chest method. When your dog wants your attention, he’ll sit straight up and look at you. He knows that this is an alternative method to get your attention. When he does, praise him profusely! Soon enough, any time he wants attention, he’ll make the choice to sit like a gentleman and wait for it. Your german shepherd jumping problem is now solved!
