I put water in a squirt bottle, and I squirted my jumper every time she even LOOKED like she was going to jump on anything! It kinda works....if she gets real excited and she thinks she hears something outside, she forgets and jumps up so she can see out the window....and then I go after her with a rolled up newspaper....she KNOWS what that rolled up newspaper means, and bless her heart she wont jump down so she wont hurt her knees.....so I just fuss at her and slap my leg with the paper....she knows she did wrong, and that is what I want....and then she is good for a couple of days, before she forgets and accidentally finds herself back up on the couch looking out the window! Thank God there has not ever been an injury from jumping down....I would REALLY intensify the newspaper training sessions!
