<p class=MsoNormal><font size=3 face="Californian FB"><span style='font-size:
12.0pt'>Hi fellow droolers!! I have a question I’m sure someone out
there has dealt with before, and I would love to hear what worked for you…
My two bassets are really bad about jumping up on people who come to the house…but
it’s not just at the front door, they do it when they are excited, when
they want your attention, when you’re trying to walk sometimes…and
it’s really becoming a pain in the hind-end!!! As much joy as I get
when I see them at the end of the day, I almost cringe when I think of the
thundering herd that will come charging at me at full speed and jump up on me
until I almost trip and fall down. I’ve tried the knee in the chest
to gently push them down, but then the other one jumps up, and they outnumber
me!! Ha ha I just wonder if anyone has some tips or training advice
on how I can get them to stop rushing the door when a visitor arrives, stop
jumping on all of us and our guests, etc. They are both really
smart, and I know that it wouldn’t take much to get them to understand,
but I just don’t know what to do to get the point across.
HELP! Thanks!!! We’z sendin da Drool to all what needs
it!! <o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
