Dachshund puppie peeing everywhere

Question
My ckc silver dapple dachshund is almost 7 months old and has a peeing problem. First off I must say that crate training has not been that big of a problem, which she still pees in it sometimes. On with the problem there are different situations that cause her to pee such as: when she comes back in from being outside she will jump on top of you and pee in your lap, when you call her name, reach down to pick her up, or someone new is sitting on the couch and she will jump on them but when they pet her then she pees. I have tried different approaches to stop this behavior but nothing is working and is becoming very frustrating. I do not know what else to do for this, please help...

Answer
Many dogs eventually outgrow it, but you can reduce it by building the dog's confidence up.  Start with obedience training.  The key to most behavior problems is approaching things using the dog's natural instincts.  Dogs see all the people and dogs in the household as a pack with each having their own rank in the pack and a top dog.  Life is much easier if the 2 legged pack members outrank the 4 legged ones.  You can learn to play the role of top dog by reading some books or going to a good obedience class. A good obedience class or book is about you being top dog, not about rewarding standard commands with a treat. Start at http://www.dogsbestfriend.com/  As you praise the dog for following your commands, it will build its confidence.  

Play tug of war with the dog and lose.  However at the end of the game, take the rope or toy and put it up, less the dog becomes confused about who is top dog.
Ropes from the pets' store quickly turn to hazardous shreds.   Ones I made
lasted much better.   Go to a hardware or home center that sells rope by the
foot.  Buy 2' of 3/4" poly rope.   Melt the ends, and tie  knots in it.   Get
them as tight as possible, put it in a vise and pound it with a hammer.  Watch
carefully, and be ready to discard when it comes apart.
