Jumping is a really common problem among dogs - or should I say among dog owners? It's rarely a problem for the dogs themselves - in fact, jumping seems to act as a reward in itself?

It's a different kettle of fish for the exasperated owner, who's forced to deal with a new set of muddy footprints/gouges in their skin and clothes/offended guests/scared children! Many owners inadvertently encourage jumping behavior from puppyhood: when a small puppy comes running up to us, wiggling with excitement and making small, clumsy leaps at our knees, it's almost natural to lean down and respond in kind. Effectively, we reward that puppy's "jump-y" greeting by reacting with exuberant affection, hugs and kisses.

The puppy learns a fast lesson: jumping is a good thing, because it results in plenty of positive attention and physical contact. Your dog doesn't understand the difference between a jump as a small, cute puppy, and a jump as a huge, hairy adult. To a dog, a greeting is a greeting, and just because he's aged by a few months is no reason to stop jumping - at least, not voluntarily.
