Dogs jump on other dogs (and people) as a sign of playfulness and over-excitement. Some dogs are naturally very active and boisterous in play or in greeting another dog or a person, and will often display its happiness by jumping and leaping. You can try to curb this behaviour by allowing your dog to calm down before letting off the lead to play or greet other people. Praise the dog when it is calm, and calmly lead the dog away to a quieter spot to calm down if it gets too boisterous.
