This is common behavior for puppies, or a new dog, as a sign of attention and affection. Mouths are a dog's way of exploring and communication so it seems natural to them. If it's more aggressive biting it may be something to seek attention and you will want to replace with a toy to discourage.
It's a sign of affection. It's natural for puppies to explore with their mouths and this is one way to show their human they want to be close.
