Teaching
|
The
word 'Off ' is used when you want to get your dog's feet off
of something, like furniture, the fence, or someone's
body.
|
To
Teach |
First,
get your dog or puppy to put his front feet up on your lap. Praise and
pet him. Shortly after, say "Off"
in a firm, but gentle voice. If he doesn't get off, you can stand up.
Be sure to say "Off" as you stand up.  |
|
Whenever your dog is on something he shouldn't be, say the word, "off" as you help him off. He will eventually connect the action with the word. |
 Every time your dog is about to get off of something, say the word "off". |
|
If your dog is on you in any way, jumping on you, or climbing on you when you are lying on the floor, be sure to say "off" as you help him off of you. |
 Get off, please! |
Tip
'Off' does not mean the same as 'Down'!
