Is it enough just to tell him NO in a stern voice or do i need to do more work with higher value treats as you mentioned (not altogether sure what would be higher value than a pigs ear for him though )
If he's doing it with pigs ears, I would simply stop giving them. Give something lower value.... when that is fine, then you can up the value again... etc (hope that makes sense). He's still a baby (isn't he?), so still learning. By giving/doing too much, too soon, we are setting them up for failure. Always try to set him up to succeed.
