Hi. He may be sneezing. You can talk to your veterinarian about an antihistamine. If he's a puppy, it is common for them to eat there own poop. There is a powder called forbid that can help them stop that habit. In the meantime, I would keep him on a leash to potty and pick up the feces right away. Playbiting is also common in puppies. I would say no firmly, ignore him, and redirect him to something he can chew on. As far as the pottying, you may need to add more pads, and also take him out every 1 to 2 hours and use positive reinforcement when he does it right. Good luck
