For many good reasons a bad idea.
yes, sticks, stones, and all things unnatural a puppy will want in its mouth. Expect the urge to digest the undigestible to continue for 2-3...
Here's my 2 cents on several of your issues: biting/nipping --it's a lab and you'll need to deal with it for a bit longer, maybe till 6 months....
I've found treat training ineffective now with my lab. It promoted excitability and the expectation for a food reward when compliant. Since...
Yes, the harness is the way to go until pup knows not to pull, if it does. BUT go off leash as much as possible at the young age as they won't...

At 15 weeks your Nugget -- great name -- should be fine holding his urine. If a pup poops at night he's probably getting to much kibble.
Like having a child yes they are hard work but know that what's a pain today will soon fade away --of course, other issues will follow. BTW if you...
This is the downside to food training -- you become a resource for treats. Do what the above poster suggests and change the routine by bringing...
