With the puppy contained in the right size cage he should learn to hold his urine longer that he has been. For more information pertaining to crates please read Benefits of Wire Cages or Plastic Crates.This should answer most of the questions that come up.

Now as for peeing in the home after he has just went outside, as he is little, and I have a dog that I adopted from a shelter that was an outside dog, and had never been indoors, I can tell you what I did the correct my problem.

Our dog Miss Piggy would so the same exact thing. If I see her do it and only if I see it, I would in a firm voice say NO, which most of the time stopped her immediately. I would then take her out and praise her greatly when she went outside. I also kept her on a leash by my side in the house, this way I knew exactly what she was up to.
With chewing on thing it was the same thing each time she chewed up something that was not hers, and I seen her do it, I said NO and pointed. I then would tell her to get a toy, at first I would have to get the toy for her. She did eventually learn toy and ball and bear bear, it will take time but you must be persistent, please read the following, Basic Training Rules
and Puppy House Breaking I do hope that I have been in some way helpful to you. (O:Please keep in mind never scold or beat your dog for things you find you must see them do it, and you must never beat them for it, and always use the same commands.
