The jumping has started

Hi, writing in about Harley our 5 month old Pyr. He has started to jump up on us, he seems to take a special delight in coming up behind you and jumping up- it can be quite a startle. Anyone have any suggestions? He is the first Pyr I have gotten as a puppy and I have never dealt with this issue before. The behavior is very playful, not aggressive and he has not done it to anyone other than his immediate family- no guests. Thanks
