"Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend. Inside of a dog it's too dark to read." - Groucho Marx Guests At The Door: Dog Greeting Behavior
However sweet and loving your dog is, no one likes to have a dog jump up to greet them. Few people anticipate such problems, yet they are common among dog owners, especially those with newly adopted dogs, puppies, and generally exuberant canines. Potential problems can be avoided and resolved with the following advice. You can set your dog up for success by having a Dog Leash and healthy Dog Treats by the front door and in your pocket at all times. Let's say you’re at home and someone comes to the door. Your leash and treats are your best friend in this situation. Put the leash on your dog, ask your dog to sit and step on the leash. Say “Off” and when your dog is calm say “Yes” and give your dog a treat. Only then should you open the door and interact with the visitor. It’s a good idea to enlist the help of a friend to practice this scenario several times. That way, whenever anyone approaches the door your dog will have over time built up a memory bank of correct behavior. The more times you can enable your dog to perform a behavior successfully the more consistent your dog’s responses will be in the future. Please remember good manners are skills that need to be practiced time and time again in order to be effective. This is as true for humans as it is for dogs. If you take ten minutes a day to train your dog on a particular skill, you and your dog will be rewarded many times over. Teaching your Fido to go to his “Place” is a great way to encourage appropriate greeting behavior in your dog. “Place” is a wonderful cue that can be used when the doorbell rings and company comes over or if you have a dog that begs at the dinner table. You can even take your dog’s “Place” with him when your on the road. All you need is a dog mat, dog bed or dog crate and you can begin teaching “Place”. Once you’ve chosen what your dog’s “Place” will be you’ll want to introduce it to the dog on leash. Walk your dog over to his “Place” and have him sit or stand on it. If you’re using a crate then you’ll have to get the dog into the crate. When the dog is in his “Place” say “Yes!” and give him a cookie. If you clicker train, then you would click and treat at this point. Release the dog with “Ok!” and walk him away from his “Place”. Repeat this exercise several times, reinforcing your dog when he sits or stands in his “Place”. Now you can introduce a verbal cue for “Place”. Use whatever word you are comfortable with but make sure it’s not a word that you use for something else. Many of my clients simply use the word “Place”, although I’ve heard several creative variations including “Villa” and “Lounge”. New & Woof-Tastic: Portable Puppy Pen
