Dog jumping up at TV.,how to stop it?

My 5 year old girl dog barks and jumps up at the TV when ever there are animals on it. We currently have a 42" rear projection TV and looking at buying a 42" LCD in the next few months. OUr current TV has scratch marks on the screen from her and we dont want this to happen to out new TV. We cannot fix it to the wall due to the shape and size of the room, so where ever we put it it will be on a stand. I have tried shouting "NO" to her as soon as an animal comes on the TV, which does work but I dont want to have to do this everytime it happens cos after the 50th time a night of shouting "NO" it does my head in !!





Any ideas?

Get rid of the dog and have a quiet life,and a scratch free tv.
Reply:Some how you have to train your dog to be afraid of going near the tv.....either the electric collar or a device that might let out a loud sound when the dog approaches, i know they make little battery operated devices that let out a loud shreek when a dog jumps on a couch....possibly something along those lines will work. Either way it will take some time to make the dog afraid of the tv.
Reply:why dont you try filling a bottle with some small stones and when the dog jumps up shake it not to scare her but to take her mind off the sound of other animals on the screen try it, it may do your head in but stick with it and it may work
Reply:Try holding her back every time she sees one you could get a spray coller so every time she does it she gets sprayed ...


go to the local pet shop and ask they will be happy to help you find a product you could even try a vet they'll give you good advise . Remember be very paitent . try taking her out for more walks she could be bored ...


Is she socialized enough ? why not try taking her for walks with a mates dog it will tire her out and she wont be bothered about whats on TV . You could get her a dog bed and put it somewhere no where near the TV and teach her the command bed and then if shes away from the TV she wont know whats on ...


one last thing every time she doesnt jump give her a fuss and a treat this will make her happy and she will want to be rewarded good luck !!!!! i hope i helped

Reply:put a gentle on him leader it goes around his mouth and head it does not prevent bitting but u hav better control of the dog http://bargraph.com/gentleleader/frames....


and keep it on him and attach the leash to the gentle leader so every thing the dog tryes to run toward the tv she will hav to try to pull but her head wont budge so she wont pull it is very affective ask ur vet about it he will agree
Reply:I don't know, but mine does it too although he hasn't scratched the TV he's a bit too small, he is getting better if you can hold on to her and just stroke her calmly, it seems to soothe mine - he knows he doesn't need to 'protect' us - still grumbles though!...........just can't help laughing at mine though - he was watching Crufts (which strangely DIDN'T have him going completely bonkers!) he saw the GSD looked at our GSD, back at the TV, then he backed off trying to work out how the German Shepherd could be in the box and lying on the floor at the same time! dogs do think, it puzzled him all night! Lol! Be interested if anyone has a surefire cure to it!
Reply:one of those elctric collars and every time the mutt barks, just zap it. Dogs are quick learners.





I'm glad I am not YOUR next door neighbour.
Reply:try calling it away from the telly.. raise ur voice and say stop.. if it stays away from the telly then give it a threat if not try hitting it a little slap on the nose and raise your voice to say stop... keep doing this and your pet will stop jumping.. honestly it works
