Hello, there. My husband and I have been with our 4 month old pup for just over a week and she seems to be adjusting really well! So well, that she has figured out how to hop onto the couch and now does it repeatedly with us trying to teach her “Off” because of it. We wanted to establish this boundary to teach her to ask to come up later on. Trainers recommend giving them a comfy bed to call their own, and to essentially continue to take them off anytime they hop on, which we have been doing, but she gets fixated sometimes and will just keep hopping on. My thought is to tether her around her bed, and we’re trying to barricade the couch with pillows. Any suggestions, or do we just hang in there?
