A dog’s natural instinct is to jump and nip at anything that moves. This behavior can be annoying and even dangerous when it occurs around people or other animals. Fortunately, there are a few simple steps you can take to stop your dog from jumping and nipping.

First, be sure to train your dog from a young age not to jump and nip at things. This will help to curb the behavior before it becomes a problem. If your dog does begin to jump and nip at people or other animals, be sure to immediately use a stern voice and take appropriate disciplinary action. This will help to stop the behavior in its tracks.
