re mouthing/biting:
bailey did it to everyone in our house. We particularly didn't like it with our youngest, the yelping didn't work (else squeaky toys wouldn't be a thing right?). lots of standing up turning away and firm no seemed to. got Bailey into the right habits early on and now she gets bossed around by N rather than the other way around. The older people tolerated it a bit more but set boundaries.
Bailey used to go batshit before needing a shit, jumping up, nipping, all sorts. That passed.
gets super excited at the moment after throwing and fetching (i'm not going to call it retrieving, it's not that yet) so I let her hold on to the big stick she's been chasing or if she's on the lead let her put that in her mouth. and then calmness prevails.

Until a fox poo appears on the walk.
