Hi all i have recently brought a male bassett Hector he is now 5months.
He is perfect in "nearly" everyway except, how do i stop him from jumping up on the sofa. He has his own bed in the kitchen which he sleeps in at night and when iam in the kitchen.
But when we are in the living room he will lay on his a large cushion but he will only stay on it if we are with him.
The other day he was fast asleep on his cushion, i got up he followed me around the sofa watched me go upstairs, i swear he had the biggest grin on his face as he romped back to the sofa and jumped up.
I tell him 'no' firmly and get him straight down, but still he does it, someone suggested a squirty water bottle but he loves that.
He knows his not allowed up there because if he is up there and hears us coming he will jump down unless he has got too comfortable.
We have quite a high sofa so i worry about his legs.
Any suggestions would be helpful thanks in advance.
