Bijou is a sweet pup and we adore her. She's silly and energetic, loving and mellow. However, despite my best efforts, in the 2-1/2 months since we adopted her (she's about six months old now), she still jumps up on everything/everyone, she still scrambles to get anyone's food directly from their plates, etc.

We're pretty consistent with training -- everyone in the house uses the same commands for the same behaviors -- but we're at a standstill with reducing some of the more difficult puppy habits!

Am I expecting too much, or is she simply in need of better direction?

Thanks for any feedback!
