Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Ok so Riley is 14 weeks today and is able to jump and clear a two and a half ft gate with ease saw it this morning he stuck the landing by the way. My concern is at the end of the drive way we have a four to five ft fence I think he will try and jump but has hasn't even pawed at that yet it's just proactive concern how can we stop the jump on the furniture which he does currently and also over the mini gate???

If the fence is so low that you think he could jump it then he shouldn't be outside unsupervised anyway, so you could just move him away from it if you are out there. Our fence is about five feet as well and our dog has made no move to try and jump it yet because he already has plenty of space to run around in the back yard. Just train "on" and "off" with furniture or with pawing at the gate or fence...that least helps get it under some control. I don't know if this is true or not, but a trainer told me there isn't any really great method for keeping your dog off the furniture when you aren't there. I suppose you could use some sort of method to deter it, the same way that you would spray something bitter if you wanted to dissuade chewing, but I don't really know how to keep them from ever jumping on furniture if you aren't there.
We always make the dog "do something" before he gets to come up on the couch - like sit, or shake, or down, or some sort of way to say "please." Then we grant him permission. If he gets on the couch without permission we give him the "off" command, and if he doesn't acknowledge, we physically remove him. It gets better with repetition, but consistency is a must.
