I’ve always yelped when my pups bit a little to hard. It lets them know it went to far and where the line is at. If you think about it, that’s what dogs do when they play and it works.

12 weeks way too early to rule that one out. 
Not really a bad thing, it's how they learn their own strength so that they don't hurt kids later. Unless it's a breed of peace dog.

Not a problem with me but we get concerned when she’s around little kids
Little kids should never be left alone with any large dog breed, even labs. The dogs see themselves as part of the pack and may view the kid as competition for rank in the pack. They can hurt a child without intending more than a play attack.

Thanks for taking a rescue animal. Starting immediately as soon as his teeth come in contact with you give out a high pitched yelp and turn away from him. No interaction for at least 15 seconds. Remember no eye contact no interaction for at least 10 to 15 seconds. I have a set of brother and sister pit/boxer rescues and this is what I did with them. Your pup will need plenty of exercise and activity or they can get anxious.

Maybe so.

Go to the pet store and buy some pig hooves. I have 3 dogs and that is what we got to keep them busy and not gnaw on furniture. You can also fill the hollow part with peanut butter for a inexpensive treat.
Keep away from dog parks until dog is 6 months or older due to chance of getting Parvo. Read up on Parvo, that will kill puppies.
For heart worms, get vet to prescribe Tri Heart Plus, get it at Chewy.com, good prices. Buy a rope leash, some dogs will chew through the cheap thin leashes.
Costco has best prices on food, dog beds, etc.
Go to Orvis.com for dog collars you can get dog's name and your phone number imprinted on it. Also get vet to do a chip implant.

Go to the vet and get the dog it’s shots and prevention. Get her spayed if the rescue didn’t.
Consider pet insurance. If you get it while the dog is young there won’t be any preexisting conditions. It’s great for emergency surgeries, allergies, and other things put/lab mixes are prone to.

My puppy is 2 and he’s still very orally fixated. We provide a lot of chew toys and redirect to them whenever he wants to nibble on something.
He legit spends 12 hours a day with a toy in his mouth.

Overall she’s been pretty good for a puppy but she’s a crazy biter. Anyone go through anything similar? Any recommendations? Probably going to throw in the towel and take her to trainer soon if I can’t get it under control.
I have 2 11 week old mini aussiedoodles. I'm not sleeping much, but they can be fun. Potty training is going to be the death of me.
As far s nipping and biting, I'm redirecting them when it happens to a chew toy currently. And it's virtually non stop. When they sleep, I sleep.

Awe, how adorable! I went through something similar with a rescued lab some years ago. The vet suggested a chew toy which worked like a charm. Labs love to have things in their mouth, maybe an instinctive thing.
