If I remember right, I think I was told that basically your pup thinks you are one of the pack, or even the pack leader, and that is their way of greeting you.
My Harley jumps up on me too, and actually uses me as a bouncing board practically, which is not good when he is a 21" tall 40+ lb beagle mix who loves to jump! Yikes, bout knock a gal over!
They just want you to know you are loved and missed, but yes, you have to just completely turn away. the eye contact is a big thing too. After a few very strict times, your pup will understand better!
