I know all about jumping pups, Tilba is a jumper. She doesn't jump on me much, but whenever I take her out or we have visitors she wants to jump on them.
What you should do is have visitors turn their back on her. She will probably jump at their back. It takes consistancy & willing participants. Another method is to have her on lead when they arrive just far enough away from the door so they can come in without being jumped on. After she's settled & the visitors have sat down, give them some treats to give her & show them what to do. No talking to, looking at or pushing down. It's all attention, which she wants. She only gets rewarded when 4 feet are on the floor.
Back to Tilba, a lot of the ppl who she jumps on should know better, or they say it's ok, I'm used to dogs. Doesn't cure the problem.
