Welcome
hes too young to do anything with really i would just walk him 10 mins at a time, garden play as much as he likes and maybe get him interested in a flirt pole although not make him jump. just on the floor and not often. Just let him be a puppy and concentrate on socialization and training him for the first 6 months at least.

you can make one out of a bambo cane string and a plastic bag or you can goto a horse shop and buy a lunge whip and tie a bag to the end. Makes sure he dont eat the bag.
