Hi there and thank you for using pet coach to address your concern. I would recommend leaving the leash on Pluto at all times when he is awake. When he jumps up, you grab the leash and give a firm tug downward and say "off" to deter this behavior. A spray bottle filled with water and spritzing him in the face every time he does this is another good method. Once he begins to respond to off, reward with a treat. I hope this helps! Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns.
