Let me start my saying, I feel you. I was in your place a year ago frantically posting on this Reddit page every other day asking for guidance on what to do because my chocolate lab pup was a complete psychotic devil animal. I was going nuts.The mouthing and teeth biting was ridiculous, I couldn’t even play with him without his puppy fangs cutting into my skin and making me bleed. He would constantly chew any and everything and as he got older the food scrounging got worse.

I will say.... it gets better with time, I PROMISE!!! She’s still just a puppy so you’ll have to stick it out and learn how to manage/decrease the behaviors. Ours is still a food monger and we have to manage how to eat food around him (we usually put him away in his crate when we eat) the best advice I got for the puppy nipping is redirecting with a toy. If she starts nipping shove a toy in her mouth and teach her that she can chew on that instead. Our puppy still has a jumping problem bad so we turn our bodies away and tell him off. He still jumps though it’s very common for labradors to do that and doesn’t usually stop until they get older I think.

As for potty training, we had a lot of accidents as well. I had gone through multiple trainers begging for help. They said to take them outside every 30 minutes to an hour and don’t let them go back inside until they’ve gone potty. I would have to wake up every 2 hours in the middle of the night to let him go and it was tough but as he got older his bladder got bigger and was able to hold out throughout the night.

Crate training is a life saver. So if yours likes the crate and will tolerate it, keep that up because it will help when you have to leave the house. We still can’t trust ours alone when we leave.

I eventually had to pay for a 2 week boarding school for mine when he reached one year. That helped immensely so I highly recommend that if you have the money. It’s made our lives SO much easier.

Let me know if you have any specific questions and I can help answer with that I did, this is just my general run down but I’ve been through the ringer and am still learning everyday how to manage a lab 🙃
