Don't let your dog pounce all over you

My dad is the classic example of what NOT to let your dog do. Pounce all over him when he gets back.

You probably think that its sooo cute that your dog misses you sooo much that he/she pounces all over you when you get home.

Sorry folks. The truth is that your dog is showing its dominance over you. So...as per my earlier post, do not let your dog get away with this behaviour! You need to ensure that your dog does not pounce on you by either stepping lightly on its hind paw or just lift your leg up so that it slides down.

Remember: you're the pack leader, the alpha. Not your dog.
