Jumping is not cute...

I think we all know about the great Cesar Millan  and he is able to provide great advice and tips so over the next few weeks we will be sharing some of articles, especially on topics we get asked about a lot.


How can you tell if your dog is the pack leader? It's simple: if your dog jumps on you when you arrive home, she is the pack leader. If your dog jumps on your guests, she is making sure that these new arrivals also know she is in charge. What can you do to stop this hyper dog problem behavior?

Establish yourself as pack leader. When a dog doesn't have a clear pack leader, she tries to fill the vacant role, usually to disastrous results (for the owner and for the dog!) The pack leader leads by projecting a calm-assertive energy.

Don't shower your dog with affection when you walk through the door. This kind of attention is wonderful for a human child, but not for a dog. Remember dogs are animals, and the kindest thing you can do is to treat your dog like a dog and communicate in a way he'll understand.

Correct dog jumping problem behavior. The dog’s mom, the ultimate pack leader, would never tolerate inappropriate activity. If she sees something she doesn’t like, she stops it by moving the puppy out of the way in a calm-assertive manner. The puppy learns an important boundary from the lesson, and her firm and unambiguous leadership balances the puppy’s submissive role in the pack.

When your guests arrive, ask your dog to sit patiently. Your dog will follow your commands when he respects you as his pack leader. Remember, the animal pack leader doesn’t negotiate to get what he or she wants.

You can't be a leader only some of the time. Leadership is forever; inconsistency triggers confusion and anxiety in a dog and hyper dog behavior. Animal pack leaders never waver from their leadership role, and neither should you!
