Training disks were designed to make a loud noise to distract the dog. You can use a soda can full of pennies if you do not have a training disk.

How to stop your dog jumping up at guests
-
Tell your guests to completely ignore the dog. Don't even look at it. It will then get less excited and shut up.
-
I talked with a dog trainer about this and she said to squeeze the dog's paws each time he jumped up on you. They learn to associate jumping up with getting their paws squeezed, so they stop doing it.
-
When your dog barks madly at the doorbell, get his attention with a treat. Once he sees the cookie, throw it into another room and he'll chase it, ignoring your guest who's frightened by the barking.
-
1. Do not make eye contact with the dog
2. Do not speak to the dog
3. Step back when the dog jumps up
4. Do not speak/stroke the dog until it is sitting down
-
A well aimed squirt from a water pistol stops many different types of bad behaviour with both dogs and cats. Great for stopping a barking dog.
-
Put a biscuit tin top (like the one from Quality Street chocolates) underneath your t-shirt or sweater and make your dog jump on you. The sound that their paws would make upon hitting the tin top really irritate them. It discourages jumping in the future.
-
I talked to my dog trainer, and she said :If your dog jumps up at you, take hold of his paws and get him to walk backwards . When you let go and he drops onto the floor, you congratulate him and offer him a treat. Or, another way is to just bend your knee up so that your knee is onto his chest. push, and he will fall onto the ground. When he is on the ground, then congratulate him immediately.
