Answer
Just try the best you can and be patient...he'll settle down.

If he chews on his leash, get a chain-link leash.  If you have a nice park area to take him to then an extension leash would be great.  You can let him roam a bit and still be in control.

A harness is good for a dog that pulls.

Watch the other leash carefully because if he chews it right through and it breaks on the street that would be a possible tragedy.

If you catch him biting the leash, a firm NO and take it out of his mouth.  If he pulls while walking...stop dead for 10 seconds.
The message is "you pull and you go nowhere".  If he knows "sit"..stop and make him sit.
