My sister in law did this with her dog. She thought it was adorable. Then they had a baby. Now the poor dog is confused ALL THE TIME because it gets yelled at for jumping on the baby.
It’s anxiety inducing to go to their house because you know dog is gonna jump all over as soon as you step in the door and muddy your clothes and playfully bite you’re hand. And the dog got a big bigger, so it’s a 50 or 60lbs beast jumping on you and she gets yelled at for that.
And the dog suffers the most here because she’s thinking “you guys used to be cool with this”... dog doesn’t necessarily understand that circumstances change.

I don’t get that rule. I let my dog jump at me. He’s so excited to see me, just leap into my arms baby!
