To stop your Pug from jumping on people, teach them alternative behaviors like sitting when greeting others. When they start to jump, turn away and ignore them—don’t make eye contact or push them off, as this can seem like attention. Once they calm down or sit, reward them with praise or a treat. Be consistent, and ensure everyone in the household follows the same rules. You can also use the “off” command and redirect their excitement with a toy. Practice regularly with visitors or friends who can help reinforce good behavior. Over time, your Pug will learn jumping doesn’t get them the attention they want!
