| Talking Ewok for a walk Just started taking my puppy out for walks more recently. Been about a month. He is scared of other dogs. That I will try to socialize by taking him to a pet cafe (coffee shop filled with pets - only in korea and japan). He does well on walks. He loves meeting people way too much though. He just go kinda of nuts. He is a small one so jumping on people is not really a problem but he just goes nuts and the people find him so cute they really dont seem to mind. Is there any way to train him to meet people more calmly. He is about 6 months old now. He has always been like this when greeting people. I am out of the house over 12 hours a day. Maybe he is just lonely. He does not have seperation anxiety though. He does go pee when meeting these people. |

| Welcome Hello and welcome to Yorkie Talk! There are many great people here. I'm sure you'll enjoy it. My puppy is very excited when she meets people too. I've been trying to teach her to sit first when people come to pet her. She's getting better. Maybe you could try that too. I hope that helps!

| Sit when greeting is a great way to manage jumping up to greet. Four paws on the ground and good stuff happens. I also train in eye contact with you... look at what is making you excited and look back to me and get a reward. You can teach the longer he stays calm the better the reward. 12 hours is a little long for a dog to stay at home if he can not pee on a pee pad so make sure he is able to relieve himself freely. Now what make you say he does not have separation anxiety?? JL |

| of course he got a pee pad. he is very pampered. I love him very much. Even got a cooling pad for the hot days. I just afraid he is nipping at people becuase lately he has been nipping at me. |
