I could certainly use help, as I want the best for my dogs, and I do NOT want to have to rehome another because of my inexperience!

tethering and Implementing the leash= Having the dog leashed, and with you at all times, so they have no oppurtunity to jump up, or do anything else naughty.

As far as the Toes thing, I have used that one myself, Duke was a horrible Jumper when he was younger, and I have to say that trick worked! Whether it was right or wrong, it worked.
