What does NOT work is that silly "ignore him" - he'll stop, Why should he? I doubt this one knows sit or stay given the behavior so put him a sit and make him stay......
Using treats is silly because one day you will start to forget the treats or not have them or something, and the next time you call her, she'll remember not getting the treat and figure "why bother?" Spray bottles of water?? Who wants to carry that around all the time??
Clickers are just flat stupid - they are for people who are too dumb to figure out how to quickly say "GOOD DOG" in a happy, excited voice.
You always have your hands and your voice. Use them
Stop jumping by any of these methods:
(1) A loud “No” and push her off and hold her down and scold her with “Bad, Bad Bad”. Then tell her “Okay,” let her up and give her a pat (if she doesn’t leap again.)
(2) A loud “No” and time it so that as she comes off the ground, you bring your foot forward and step on her back foot.
(3) A loud “No” and as she comes up off the ground, raise your knee so that she hits it with her chest and bounces off.
The peeing is from excitment - and boy puppies tend to do it a lot until closer to 10 months in many breeds.
Work on having him calm and in a "down" when people arrive - don't llet him get so wound up.
Now you both need a GOOD obedience class - and that is NOT Petsmart or Petco.

Ashley G nailed it. Do not show your dog any attention when he/she is jumping. Turn your back and walk away. Use a negative word your dog is familiar with. My dog knows "uh-uh!" When he hears me say it, he will sit and that is the response I want when I arrive home. I want him to sit calmly and wait for me to approach him (he's over 50 lbs and could easily knock me down if he wanted to). Once he has done what I wanted, then we play. He knows when I am on the floor with him some jumping is allowed (he's a boxer and the jump a lot!)
The key is to inform any guests to your home about your training. They have to know that the jumping is unacceptable and use the same technique you use. This is just re-affirming to your dog that the jumping is not allowed and he will be rewarded for the proper behavior.
I've heard about the knee thing too. But personally do not recommend it. If the dog is jumping at you with any force, the collision with your knee could hurt him. Just a personal POV on that one.
Good Luck!

I had this problem with a couple of dogs a few years ago. Keep a close eye on them, but they will probably work it out for themselves. When the beagle gets tired of it, he will probably put the bulldog in it's place. Monitor them closely so neither gets hurt, but try letting them work it out on their own. The bulldog may just need to get used to being around a different dog and since he's so young, he's probably still learning "acceptable" play.

A well-trained dog makes everyone happy, including his owner. Take a little time training him, and you'll never regret it; you'll always have an obedient dog by your side. Find more https://tr.im/eh4rl
By their nature, dogs are pack animals with a well-defined social order. Through basic training, you need to consistently make sure your puppy understands that you are the leader, not him. So in teaching him the basic rules, you take on the role of pack leader.
To fit into the family circle, your dog must be taught to recognize his name and such commands as come, heel, lie down and sit.

Agree with previous advice on making him sit quietly before he gets attention.Push him away with your knee as he jumps and he won't find it so rewarding! A loud 'LEAVE' and a pull on his lead first should help with strangers. The peeing should stop as he gets older. Lots of puppies do it when they're excited or frightened

When you get home, do not show him any attention until he calms down. Just completely ignore him. For jumping on other people, train him when you take him out for walks and things. Have him on his leash, and let him get close, but not close enough to jump on them, then have the other person make him sit. He gets no attention until he is sitting calmly. This will take time and patience. I have 2 husky mixes, and it took a while, but you cannot believe the difference it will make in your dog.

You and the dog alone, no other people to distract him... he jumps up on you, use your knee to push him away and say "NO". Using your knee is key, he WANTS you to touch him with your hands. Repeat until he gets it, he will. The bladder control is just because he's a puppy, that will stop when it stops, not a lot you can do till it does.

With our dogs we just ignore them when they jump up, and give them lots of attention as soon as they go back down again. It hasn't worked yet because you have to make sure everybody is doing it, but the theory seems right!
Also the peeing thing, it's because they get over excited, just make sure they go to the loo really often!

From the time my dog started "jumping on people, I told the "people" this wasn't allowed, and it made it easier to train her not to jump on anyone. Female dogs are a bit easier to train than males, but it can still be done, just be strict! As for him peeing on people? I don't know, I've never had that problem with my dog. But you might try just "talking" to one of those trainers at Pet Smart, just for some ideas. Good luck.

Aussie's right. Your dog needs training. When my dog was a puppy, she would lay on her back and wee up in the air like a fountain when she met new people. Partly, it's the excitement of youth but training classes will definitely help with it.
