our tyson is 5.5 months now and he used to try to jump on everyone and always tries to counter surf.
Me and my GF would just turn around and ignore him until all four are on the floor. This way, he knew that he would not get any attention which is what he was jumping for in the first place.

We would also praise him for "four on the floor" This way, he knew having all his feet on the ground is a rewardable action. I found this to be much more effective than reprimanding the bad behavior. We added the queue word "OFF" so that when he started counter surfing or tried jumping on a person, we could queue OFF and he'd get off


Tyson now doesnt jump on me or the GF anymore. But he does try to jump on everyone else that excites him and gives him attention. Still a work in progress!!

Good luck!!
