Advice about my puppy??

Ha

We got a Bluetick Coonhound mixed with Blue Heeler puppy last year (he is ten months old now) and I have never owned a dog before. My husband has had dogs and he told me he would take the lead on training him and all that. My husband has been working like crazy lately because his job has had a ton of projects going on and people leaving and with Covid there are new challenges for them because he works in HR at a medical center so he is definitely getting worn out and he’s currently looking for a new job! I would like to help out with our dog and his training more so the pressure isn’t all on my husband but I’m entering my third trimester of pregnancy and have never trained a dog so can anyone give me some advice?

My big areas of concern are:

1) He gets very excited to see people and he tends to jump up on them but he is about 50lbs and my pregnant belly can’t take that anymore so it’s something I would like to train him on quickly, if that’s possible? Plus, I don’t want him to jump on guests when we finally start having people over again.

2) My two year old is pretty much on the same level as my dog when he is down on the floor playing and sometimes when he has something in his hand, Rocky will get curious or playful and take it from him. He is EXTREMELY gentle about taking food, treats, etc from all of us and he doesn’t hurt my son but it makes him so mad and sometimes my son won’t let go and he falls over or he is holding food and we don’t want our dog taking food unless it is given to him.
