then you want to give him something he is allowed to chew on and while he is chewing give him some "good boy!" and pats on the head.
also you should work on getting him to let you take back whatever it is he is chewing on. hand it to him and take it back a few times.
also just another note.. whenever you leave and enter the house with the dog make sure you go in or out first. in a pack of dogs the head dog always goes in/out first. the rest know their place..

it's funny you mention the last part because he doesn't move until we walk outside. He doesn't even walk down the steps until we go first. He's very good with knowing his place. He's not toy possessive. We say "Release" and he let's go on command.
