I don't let my puppies go to new homes until 12 weeks. 10 weeks is so young, of course he is doing things like this. That's why it's best to let them stay with their mom and litter mates until 12 weeks as one of the most important things it teaches is bite inhibition. Now you need to be the one to teach him. It's not his fault, he's doing what puppes do.
