Posted your question to CHL over on my question thread. Thought he would post the answer back to you but he just answered over there, so in case you don't read that thread I moved the answer over here!

I've always had good luck with raising my knee into the dog's chest, along with a stern "Off!". For a small dog, a foot usually works. For a really determined dog (doesn't learn after a week or so), you may have to bump harder. Theory is that if it's uncomfortable, they'll stop. Once they understand the word, try to get it in before their front feet leave the ground.
