definately a troll. Unfortunately some people really ARE this retarded.
Dear OP, in the slight chance that you are not a troll: cingratulations! You have a completely normal puppy. Although an obvious impulse buy with little to no research on puppy behavior beforehand, you can still manage this crazy puppy behavior. First, FEED YOUR PUPPY AT SCHEDULED TIMES. Puppies need to poop/pee anywhere up to 30 minutes after they wake up, eat, drink, play, and excersize. If he eats and random intervals, he'll poop randomly too, making your job of housetraining him a lot harder. Clean the messes in your house with a PET ENZYMATIC CLEANER, such as Nature's Miracle or Simple Solution. Not water or bleach or any of that shit, that won't cut it. Dogs are attracted to where they've already been, so if you don't clean up every mess, he'll keep going in the house. KEEP YOUR PUPPY IN A CRATE WHILE YOU ARE AWAY. This will keep him from messing in the house as well as keep him from destroying anything! Oh, wow! Make sure he gets a potty break every couple of house - if you can't come home to let him out, have a friend or neighbor do it. Make sure the crate is big enough for him to sit, stand, lie down, and turn around, but NOT MUCH MORE or else he'll poop/pee in one side and sleep in the other. EXCERSIZE YOUR PUPPY. Take him on plenty of walks, let him play with other dogs, and wrestle with him in the house to get out some energy. GIVE HIM STUFF TO CHEW. He's teething right now, so he needs to chew, you can't stop that. Give him a kong toy with some peanut butter inside (not too much, don't want to make him fat) or something alike to keep him occupied. TAKE HIM TO PUPPY CLASS. I can't emphasize this one enough. You're an obvious first-time owner and you need the class just as much as your puppy does. They'll help you teach him manners, and he'll also get to socialize with other dogs.
