Teaching Calm Greetings and Respectful Behavior

In this video, Steve walks you through effective techniques to prevent your dog from jumping on people. While jumping is often an excited greeting, it can be overwhelming or even unsafe. By teaching your dog to stay calm and reinforcing polite behavior, you’ll build better manners and more enjoyable interactions with family, friends, and strangers. With consistent practice and the right reward system, your dog will learn that keeping all four paws on the ground is the best way to get attention.
