    Hello to you and Saphy, from me and Charlie, 9.5 months.

    Do you mean when you are out and about on a lead? I made Charlie sit (I had first clicker trained his sit), and rewarded him for staying put. First very high value treats, then fading those out. Now we're fine with people. Still have to watch it with other dogs though but we're much, much better.

    In the house, with the same rewards for quiet sit thing, I've got as far as having him sit quietly while I answer the door - unless it's my Dad or my best friend who make a huge fuss of him and he goes nuts. Oh, or the dog walker because she means walkies. We haven't cracked that one quite yet either. On second thoughts, maybe someone else will give you a better answer, I'm not doing so good! ;D ;D ;D
