Learned Behaviors We Teach our Dog's

Inappropriate Jumping on Everyone 
What your dog does;
Jumps up on and at people, places paws on the person's chest.
What it means;
An instinctive action aquire from their ancestors. It can show either submission or dominance, depending on breed and age.
What should you do;
Discourage the behavior from the start, either by closing off the space into where your dog can jump or by refusing to reward the behavior with attention.

It can be instinctive behavior, passed down from a dog's wolf ancestors, to slicit food or to offer a greeting. Ling another's lips is also used as a submissive gesture, but to get to the lips of people our dog's need to jump up first. In older dogs, this behavior is often a display of rank. In canine - to - canine communication, one dog will loom over another and place their paws on that dog to show dominance.
With the same intention our dog's will jump up on us and place their paws on our chest. Regardless of the intent behind your dog's actions, it has become a learned behavior, it gets results so it will be repeated.

Inappropriate Begging
What your dog does;
Begs for food from the table.
What it means;
The dog has been taught that begging for food from the table works. Pawing at food, whining, or barking with eyes focused on the food, or simply sitting beside the table and staring up at the food, all learned behaviors, and your dog may not even be hungry.
What you can do;
Never feed your dog from the table and make sure no one else does. Teach your dog that he will not be rewarded for begging and stand by your decision. You may be tempted to give in--don't do it. Remind yourself that eating table scraps can lead to weight gain, and is a leading cause of canine digestive problems. Our dog's learn what we teach them. They get their information from us. If begging is rewarded they will continue to behave this way.

It's easy to notice inappropriate behavior. Good behavior seems to go unnoticed, it should be. Look for good behavior and reward it, often. Ignore the rest. Your dog will learn that good behavior gets results, the positive reinforcement will increase your bond.

Some foods are a danger to dogs. Such as chocolate, grapes, raisins, and onions.

Inappropriate behavior has been learned. We have communicated that it's okay, either by not correcting the behavior or by rewarding it. Instead we need to provide a reason for good behavior.

Why begging behavior should never be rewarded: 

• It can lead to problem eaters, who refuse dog food in favor of our food.
• Dogs who develop a taste for our food are more likely to steal food from the counter, or ransack the garbage bin for leftovers.
• It can lead to unhealthy weight gain and obesity, which can lead to other health problems.
• Dogs who are feed table scraps learn that persistence pays off and the behavior will escalate.
• Table scraps don't provide the nutrition a dog needs.
• Bones can lodge in a dog's throat.

Dogs are smart. Soon their begging won't be limited to the table, but will include the refrigerator, and when you are cooking.

Love your dog but don't spoil them. They will be a happier pal.

Behavior Problems; Chewing

Chewing 
Dogs are intelligent, social animals who need the stimulation of activity and companionship. Without it, the natural canine behavior of chewing can become destructive. If this is the case, a look at your dog's motivation can explain why he's behaving as he is, and what you can do about it.

Why and How 
Puppies explore the world with their mouths. Most dog owners have experienced this, perhaps it was shoes in tatters or a couch cushion ruined. Dog chew things, it's simply part of canine behavior. However, this does not mean you have to accept chewed table legs. Instead, ask yourself these questions:

Is your dog teething ?
The timing here varies from dog to dog, but it is around four months of age. During this time those sharp puppy teeth are shed. Signs that may indicate teething include drooling,
irritability, and changes in appetite, and mouthing anything available to relieve his discomfort. Try soaking one of his stuffed toys in water and freezing it. Chewing on the frozen toy can help numb teething pain, and prevent him from chewing what he shouldn't.

Is your dog bored or lonely ?
If so, her behavior may be the only way for her to release energy or relieve anxiety. Your dog needs regular exercise, mental stimulation, and companionship. You can't always be with her, but don't leave her alone too long without first giving her the physical and mental exercise she needs. Make sure she gets daily walks, training sessions, time with you, and toys that will engage her when you are out.

Have there been changes in your household ?
If you have recently moved, have changed your work routine, or have brought a new baby or a pet home, your dog may feel unsettled and anxious, causing her to chew for relief. Spend more time with her and set a routine that will help her feel more secure.

Does she have her own chew toys ?
When she is busy chewing on her own toys, she will be less tempted by your shoes or the table leg. The toy needs to be the right size for her, not small and easy to swallow, not so large that it's hard to get her mouth around it. Balls, rope toys, hollow toys that can be stuffed with treats, and toys that make noises. Toys specially formulated for mental stimulation can keep your dog happy and busy for hours. Food-for-work toys can be filled with bite-sized dry food. Your dog has to figure out how to get the food, by nose or paw.

Do and Don't

Do dog proof your home. Place cleaning supplies and anything that could harm your dog out of reach.

Don't leave electrical cords and cables exposed. Your puppy would love to chew on them and it is very dangerous. So keep them tucked away.

Do have a tight fitting lid on your garbage container. It may have hazardous items that could cause choking, or food that can make them very ill.

Don't encourage your dog to play tug of war with a towel or t-shirt, or give her an old shoe to play with. She won't know the difference between these and your new shoes. Choose toys that are not like household items. Use only these toys when playing with her.

Don't chase your dog if he runs off with an item he shouldn't have. Being chased is fun for him and will only encourage the behavior. Instead, call him to you and reward him for coming to you with a yummy treat.

Do train your dog to release objects. Offer him a treat in exchange for what you want him to give you. Say "give" as he releases it and praise him. Do this consistently until he understands the command. Always praise, reward, good behavior.

If you come home to dog created mess, it is no use punishing your dog. She won't make the connection between her behavior and the punishment since it has been an hour ago. She just knows you are angry, which can cause her to fear you and your unpredictable moods.
You think she looks guilty, but she is only reacting to you, your body language and tone of voice. At this point it is not about the shoes chewed.

The teething stage is usually from four months to ten months old. It does vary from dog to dog. Puppies mouth and chew to relieve tender gums.
