Another shirt in the bin...

So I had to knee my dog yesterday because his jumping was too much. As soon as I did it I felt so guilty but it got him to stop.
Today he was OK until I decided let's go for a run.
He got all excited jumped and nipped at my shirt.
Two massive holes on them.
I was gutted as it was actually a favourite shirt of mine.


Please don't say I'm being cruel or irresponsible. Ive been doing all the other advice, shouting ouch and no!
Turning away and ignoring him, or turning to walk in the opposite direction to distract.
I've tried grabbing him and placing him on the ground holding him firmly in place.

Telling him to calm down until I notice heartbeats and panting slow.

But it's not working...
I will be taking him to doggie classes.
And this will be my focus, I'm just afraid of making him too docile.
He listens to nearly every other command i have, but its this issue and the crate.


Despite all of this we actually had a really good day... And some passers by got a good eyeful of my bra today all thanks to doggie!
