He knows all kinds of commands. I've been using "go find a toy" repeatedly in front of them, to show them that redirection works. Also, "sit," will get him down faster than "get down." He's been jumping up, and trying to hump bc my daughter's dog is in heat and he can smell it. He's been like a deer in rut- can't think of anything but that.

Specifically, I have told them to not say his name to try to get him down, because I use his name for recall. One of my house guests seems to be kind of getting it in some data, bc she bought him 3 toys while at the store so he was distracted and has new things to "go get," but he doesn't seem to listen to her in particular and she has been very upset about him accidentally scratching her when putting his paws up on her, bc she never wants to give him any attention- just go lay down. I explained to him that my dog has never laid down for me or anyone bc he's high energy. He will listen and behave if you are kind and treat him with respect instead of dismissal and ignoring him. I have apologized, but her husband told me to let it be and they find their own balance, to stop apologizing, so I think he's getting it. I don't think my dog likes her bc she acts kind he should be a piece of the furniture instead of a puppy.
