Does your puppy go running up to the person for them to acknowledge him? If so tell people that when they come over to ignore your puppy for the first 5-10 minutes, just enough for him to calm down and not be so excited. That's what we have to do for my puppy and it works.

It is a reflex from him/her getting excited. because He/she is still growing and control over hir bladder is still developing, be patient. Maybe if you know someone is coming over you could put up a babygate and have the puppy in an area that it would be easier to clean the area when he/she has the accident. Once he gets used to the person than let him out to mingle with everyone. Or even limit his water intake during the day don't leave a salad bowl out for him maybe a small cereal bowl & refill preiodically. He may have a better time learning to control that "excitment accident".

You puppy is overly excited when they see someone at the door. My dog is 3 and pees when he thinks he's in trouble. Try to teach him to calm down. Maybe a dog treat when the doorbell rings. ( i have to do that with my dog because he jumps on people at the door) It keeps them occupied and away from the person who just came over. Maybe he will realize that the treat is more exciting than the door, therefore settling down, and will stop.

I had the same problem with my dog. Whenever I was having someone over I brought the dog out right before they arrived (I had anyone who came over call when they were down the street) then when they got there I made sure no one paid attention to him until after he had calmed down a bit. Now he doesn't pee when he's exicted anymore.

He is so happy to have a guest he just can't contain himself. Take him out for a pee beforehand when you are expecting company. Ask guests to refrain from acknowledging your pup for the first 15 minutes they are there- I know it won't be easy- I'm sure he is very cute, but that will cut out some of the excitement. Also remain calm yourself- don't give boisterous greetings.

Ignore him for the first 5 minutes when you come home and instruct your guests to do the same when they enter.
Chances are he pees based on their greeting/reaction so if you let the initial fun of seeing your new guests wear off, he'll be fine.
It'll be tough to do but it'll be effective!

Put the puppy outside before you let visitors come in.

the is a common problem with puppies. when i got my german shepard puppy she did it often to and finally grew out of it but some dogs don't. its called excited urination. how i solved it was when anybody new came over or someone who got her really excited i introduced them to her outside or just put her outdoors for awhile to empty her bladder before anybody came over.

Don't let anyone in the house :)
One simple option is to put the dog out back(asuming this is an option) before openning the front door.
