Prevent Jumping - Petsafe easy walk headcollar licol Guide

If your dog succeeds in pulling out ahead of you, this means you've
allowed too much slack in the lead. Quickly take up all the slack (do not
jerk!), and give a gentle pull to turn his head to look at you. This will
prevent him pulling further ahead. Keep walking at your normal pace,
and as you come alongside him (which puts him in the correct position),
immediately reward by releasing the tension on the lead, along with a
treat and praise.

Prevent Jumping

If your goal is to prevent jumping in the first place, then the
easiest way is to replace it with the desired behaviour of "Sit." As your
friend approaches, tell your dog to "Sit" and reward appropriately. Hold
the lead with no more than 2.5 cm - 5 cm of slack. If your dog remains
sitting , be sure to reward him immediately. After 10 - 15 seconds, ask the
person to greet your dog, praise him, and reward him with a treat if you
desire. If your dog tries to move from the Sit , steady him with a smooth
pull (do not jerk!) up and forward to prevent the movement, repeat "Sit"
and immediately release the tension on the lead as he relaxes
in the sitting position. Try to anticipate your dog's movement – just as
he begins to shift his weight to move, quickly steady him with a forward,
upward pull.
If your dog succeeds in actually jumping up, do not pull down on
the lead. This is the natural tendency, but it is not effective (remember the
"opposition reflex"). The correct technique is to pull up and forward,
just as when teaching him to sit. Remember to praise when he sits.
