when pups are teething I try to keep retrieving sessions very short, and I like to use something light like a paint roller. the pup will let you know when his mouth is too sore to carry a big hard bumper.  Im of the school where I would prefer one good retrieve to a bunch of sloppy ones, even when the pup is teething -which can last longer in some dogs than others.

get an old towel start a few rips in it. Give it to him to tear up. They'll be gone in a couple days once a few start falling out.

Keep it simple. Nothing heavy that will cause pain...Wings.. You could always work on OB until they are all in. Once the k9s are in the "fun" begins!
