Cocker spaniel, show type

- Fecking recall.
He can do this beautifully. Provided there are no other distractions, in which case you can whistle as much as you like, he won't be coming back. I have spent many hours with a pocketful of cheese/chicken/bacon and a clicker. I am too afraid to let him off the wad on walks because of this and...
- Jumping up at people.
Few people are impressed by a wet, muddy, excitable spaniel jumping up at them. how do I teach him this is unacceptable? We ignore him when he does it to us so he gets no attention unless all feet are on the floor. Clearly there is more I need to do.

No surprises here! Do I just keep stopping when he pulls? This makes a walk tedious and unpleasant for the walker! What else should i be doing?
Off to get him wet, muddy and (hopefully) exhausted [hollow laugh]
