A nine week old pup is a tiny baby. They know nothing about anything.
You have to teach them, much like you would a child.
A stern NO should be all that is needed. It will be sometime before
he comprehends what is ok and what is not.
Patience is key. You will need alot of patience. Good luck. I am sure
things will be fine in time.

good post
