Default Dealing with human visitors and training

Hi everyone,

Zoee is coming along well and starting to develop some good manners. We work hard on this and do well unless a new visitor comes over. They immediately exclaim about how cute she is and bend down to pet her and of course she gets excited and jumps up on them, something she has been taught not to do. For regular family and friends they have been taught to come on in and ignore her until she calmly sits. It's the strangers we have a problem with. So what do we do? Stop the visitors outside and explain this? Let them come on in and not make a big deal about it? I hate to be so strict especially since she is still young and lets face it...cute! , however I want her to have lovely manners too.

Thanks, PM
