Default Puppy training

I need some help. I have a 6 month old Rat Terrier. He is very bright,
full of energy and very eager to interact with me. I am attempting to train
him, he can sit and lay down. Other tricks are very hard to train because he
gets so excited that he does not pay attention. The sitting and lay down
part was fairly easy but I want to move on to other things. For instance he
will not obey me when I need him to come. He darts out the door into the
yard and will not come back when I call. If he does not want to go to bed he
will not come at bed time. He also like to jump up on me and I want to stop
this. Can someone give me some training hints? He is so eager to learn that
he will come to me and sit and bark for more attention or he will sit and
stare at me. I guess I really need to know how to control his excitement and
get him to calm down enough to pay attention. I think he could learn a great
many tricks, he is certainly eager!
