I would get a VERY short leash or else a peice of rope maybe 2 feet and tie it to the pup's collar and let him wear it around the house for short periods of time, just letting him trail it behind him to get used to having something there. Over time, increase the length of the leash/rope. Try playing, treats, etc., or just let him do whatever he wants. If it's just sitting, fine. I've never known a puppy not to get distracted by something EVENTUALLY, he'll have to move sooner or later and may then discover the leash is not going to kill him.
