I believe the answer is:

rear

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'put up' is the definition.
(I know that put up can be written as rear)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for rear that I've seen before include "The back part of something" , "what you may bring up" , "Bring up or stand up on hind legs" , "Jump" , "Of horse, rise up on hind legs" .)
