Anyone have any good ideas for keeping their dog off the furniture?
My dog, which I have had for 5-6 years now, wont stop getting on the furniture at night and when I am away. I know he knows better because he is very very sneaky about it. He wont get up when we are home, and always gets down as soon as he hears anyone waking up in the morning, or coming home at night. I almost never catch him red-handed anymore, but the few times I do, he has the guilt written all over his face...
I have tried the spray that dogs are not supposed to like, which he didnt even seem to notice. I have tried blocking the couch with things to make it difficult to get up onto, but he pulls everything down off the couch and then jumps up, and I find all the stuff I piled on the couch laying on the floor in the morning...
So my question is, how do you keep a sneaky dog who knows better from getting on the couch?
