My puppies are still not at 100% at 10 months old! They do really well with the pee pad training and going outside though. It is too cold to take them out much right now so they have to use the pads more.

The sounds like a puppy who wants to play. Grab a rope toy and play tug of war with him when he does that and use up some energy. I got sibling puppies so when they played at that age the sounds of growls sounded fierce. They still do actually. Mine play hard and then they crash!

He is probably bored and just needs some energy used up. Tug of war, my older Yorkie taught the male puppy to play tug of war, but the girl puppy doesn't understand it. She sees the older Yorkie grab a toy and take it to the younger puppy and the younger puppy grabs the toy and they both growl and then the girl puppy sees this and she runs and tackles her brother so he will give the toy back to the older Yorkie. It is the funniest thing and the boy dogs don't understand why she disrupts their fun game of tug of war. She only tackles her brother though to give the toy back to the old man! LOL

Find something he likes to do and direct him away from your feet. Mine prefer to lick my toes rather than bite them. As far as the chewing just kept re-directing and giving him something better with a firm NO if he is chewing something he shouldn't. Mine still get into stuff and chew it sometimes.

Good luck and enjoy!
