How do I control my very playful dog?

I have a 9 month old dog that is a disaster when he plays!

When he was still a smaller puppy we literally can’t train him anything. When we play, he gets very aggressive and playful he bites my arms and fingers. I tried being calm and just tell him “no” and ignore him, but it doesn’t work at all. I tap his mouth lightly while saying “no”, and he would just tap his foot on my face and bark at me. Sometimes, I pretend to cry but he won’t really listen. He would also bark at me when I try to ignore him, like a kid on tantrum.

When he meets new dogs, he’s a very good and kind dog. He doesn’t bite stranger dogs although he’s very curious. However, when he plays with his close friend dogs like Maya, he turns aggressive again and he bites her ears and this makes Maya cry.

I literally can’t do anything about him. I tried muzzles, I bought him lots of toys, tennis balls, rubber bones, but he just eats them all. This doesn’t only happen on toys, as he would also take anything munchable and destroyable he sees.

I swear, I have a very naughty dog. We had dogs before and never had any trouble disciplining them but this dog is on a different level. I love him very much even if he’s soooo naughty, but when we play it really hurts. He always leave scratches on my face, arms, thighs and legs.

How do I make him stop biting while playing? How do I control this type of dog behaviour?
