Answers:
Crate training is best for training puppies. When your friend is not home or sleeping put the puppy in the crate, then when your friend gets home or gets up take the puppy outside to do it's business. Also, about 30 minutes after feeding time take the dog out to do it's business.
she is teething, just buy her couple of hard bones or toys it will help.
try puppy training pads my pup is 11 weeks old and goes straight to them 99% of the time.
The biting i got some toys from pets at home that you freeze it helps with there teething.
House training:
When we had a puppy - we tried "cage training". The theory behing this is that you leave the dog in a large cage or simaler with its bedding %26 food. Dogs do not like to soil where they sleep - eat etc so soon get used to holding on.
DON'T leave them in there all day %26 when you let them out, take them straight outside.
Biting:
Puppies bite - it's their nature - but when they do, pretend to be hurt %26 turn your back %26 ignore them - they soon learn that humans hurt easy %26 you shouldnt bite them. Never hit your dog for doing this as they will just bite back in defence.
First treat her and giver a a command when she goes outside. Don't just let her out and expect her to do it herself. Take her on the leash tell her potty in the area you want her to potty and reward her when she does. limit the food, giver a certain amount of time to eat and a certain amount of time later take her outside.
As far as the biting, puppy needs to chew to help teething but needs to know when play time gets rough. Yell no or ouch loudly and walk away for a few minutes when she is calm again have another play session. Also yelling ouch to get her attention and then giving her a toy she is allowed to chew on when she responds or stops.
Get Puppy in a class as soon as possible if nothing else for the socilization. Learn the right way to train before bad behaviors get started!
Your friend needs to buy a book on the particular breed as some are harder to train and take longer than others.
If she doesnt start now she will have an out of control dog.
Maybe she should have read up before buying a cute little puppy that grows up into an untrained dog
