You can do this in a number of ways. When your puppy acts in a desired manner you want to make sure to use positive reinforcement. When the behavior is undesirable, make use of suitable corrective methods. You need to make sure you don't ignore any kind of behavior, whether desirable or undesirable. Make use of repetition to establish proper learning. Consistency is essential both with the commands you use and making sure we practice puppy obedience training daily.
We always want to use positive verbal praise and even a treat at times when our puppy performs something properly or acts desirable. Don't forget that repetition will be the key to learning. Your puppy is extremely intelligent but it will take some practice for him/her to really get it down.

Chewing is a part of your puppy developing into a dog. If he is chewing on something he shouldn't then use a strong "No" or "Bad". Consistency is important so choose your word and stick to it. If you find him chewing a lot on something he shouldn't then make sure he has something that is okay and praise him when he chews on that toy instead.
Biting is something all puppy's do and their razor-sharp teeth hurt. It's not that she is vicious, she is just teething and exploring. You do need to set restrictions, you should not allow your puppy to gnaw hands or feet. Again patience is key. If you find her biting, make sure you yelp to let her know that she hurt you. Use your strong command and instantly stop playing. Show her that playtime ends if she bites.
It is extremely critical to start and set a schedule for both you and your puppy. Get your puppy used to waking up and going outside to use the bathroom at the same time each morning. Feeding your puppy at the same time each day is also critical. How often you feed your puppy and how much will differ depending on the breed. Always schedule some play time in for your new pup. Scheduling everything and being consistent will help speed the training process.
