I'm including a few articles that may be useful for helping you work with Kovu! I also highly recommend enrolling in a puppy training class once he is old enough so that you can work together on establishing some ground rules and learning to communicate. Puppies at Kovu's age are also teething, so it is very normal for them to be very mouthy at this stage. https://www.petcoach.co/article/tooth-eruptions-when-puppies-get-their-teeth/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/6-tips-to-help-prevent-destructive-chewing/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/puppy-biting-nipping-of-hands/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/puppy-biting-when-does-it-stop/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/chewing-in-puppies-how-to-control-it/ https://www.petcoach.co/article/how-to-choose-a-dog-trainer/
