dog out of control?

i have a 3 month old black lab puppy. She really is a sweet dog and has her moments but she is completely out of control. She cant play with other dogs cause she bites and is way too wild. she also goes to the bathroom outside (good thing) but will come inside and imediately go again and again so i take her out and then she does the same thing AGAIN! i have no idea what to do. she also bites me when i try to play and i know she is a puppy and thats part of it but as she gets bigger i dont want her to bite someone or another dog. Same thing with going in the house the mess is only getting bigger lol.... So please if anyone has any advice please help.. maybe im not being patient enough but help is appreciated

I think it is time you get yourself into some obedience training. Get her on a leash and use it properly inside and out. She is teething and doing a lot of biting and chewing. Make sure you have and offer proper chew toys for her.

At 3 months this is completely NORMAL for a puppy. You should see some of the monsters at dog shows, they have practically been trained since birth and they are still naughty!
450donn's answer was also good, if you want her to stop biting you get some chew toys.
When she bites you just a firm 'no' and take the toy away until she calms down a bit, then give it back.
As for biting other dogs... that's how puppies play, you can start saying 'no' to her now but she is still in the playful puppy stage so it will take a while to sink in.

Around now she should be toilet trained, just keep persevering and make sure you reward her with treats and praise when she goes toilet outside and use you 'angry voice' when she goes inside, pick her up and place her on the grass.
