    If she does it with you as well: how do you react?
    What do you do generally when you leave the house/when you come back?
    Every info helps me to understand your personal situation.
    So if you could provide me with that i will try to tell you what i think about it and what you could do to change the situation.

    She only jumps on guests. When we leave the house my mom tells her to guard the house (which she wouldnt do very effectivly) then when we get back we ask her if anyone called (she never answers)

    Leaving and coming home

    Well, i would suggest to make your leaving and coming home a very boring thing for your dog, that means, do not give it attention. Just leave and just come home without talking or stroking your dog, and wen there is a guest visiting i would take the dog out of the exciting situation - maybe you have some treats or a little game. Whenever there is still some jumping onto someone, a sharp "no" should do and then again - bring the dog out of the situation, give some commands and treats afterwards.
    all the best

    Since every animal is unique, they deserve particular attention. (Linked)
