He needs to start going to the vet now because vaccines are started at 8 weeks of age. He will also get a fecal exam and standard dewormers for intestinal parasites. To help stop play biting you can try telling him a stern “no”, then directing him to a toy that he can place in his mouth instead. Also yelling in a high pitched voice when he does bite too hard helps. But ultimately once he is old enough to start puppy training classes, this will help him the most becsuse pups learn how to play nice by socializing with each other. There also tons of books and videos for sale to help train your puppy well. Best wishes wth your new pup and take care.
