It is possible the bug could be a springtail, a leaf/tree hopper or a bed bug. See links below for information about each.

Can't think of any other small, brown jumping bugs apart from fleas. I do know your dog is likely to have at least a few fleas if you're not putting a proper treatment on him regularly. Do you flea treat him?
Check him for fleas by looking on his skin for flea dirts (poos) - black specks that turn red when wetted. Found most commonly round the armpit, belly and groin areas.
