I don't mind getting tough, I just know that he's a puppy and needs to play. So, I guess if he's calmly sitting next to me while I study, he can have a bone or rawhide to chew on, or even a toy, but I give it to him and take it away when I'm done. As far as petting goes, if he would obey a command, he would get pet. Or even if he was laying nice, give him a pet, but don't coo over him. We tend to walk up to him for no reason and pet him and say "Oh what a good boy". That should stop, I know. We also tend to talk to him a lot - lol! Guess that should stop too.

And one more thing, re taking things from the dog. He is at that age where he may not readily give up a bone or chew. You need to teach him 'drop it', and reward with a treat when he does, and then take the item away.
I made a big mistake at 6 months with mine, and basically got into a situation where I nearly got bit trying to take a chew away. I did not ask her to drop it, I just grabbed it from her. Very unfair on my part, and that one incident served to make her very wary of me when she had a chew. I had to work at gaining her trust back over time...
