Dogs who are over excited are more prone to making mistakes, just like humans. All Terriers are determined and I have found this mighty breed to be on the go more often than not. For this Omaha dog training session, we worked with Oliver a 1 year-old Border Terrier who likes to jump up on people, gets over excited and has difficulty calming down enough to listen to his humans. Because Oliver was so excited when people came over and he lacked structure and discipline, he jumped up, nipped and got into trouble when the family had any guests over. I recommended the guardians have friends come over the visit so they can use this approach to teach the dog to calm down and better control himself. Stopping a dog from jumping on people is really easy with this technique, it just takes practice. To help the family remember all the dog behavior tips I shared with them in this at home dog training session, we shot a roadmap to success video that you can check out below. Having a Border Terrier myself, I was prepared for the energy Oliver displayed in the session. The more the family pet with a purpose and use passive training, the better Oliver will behave.
