A Herding Behavior or Dominance Behavior?

I have a question. When starting out on a walk or coming back from a walk (but not all the time) Tex will grab my rubber boots or jeans with his teeth, let go and stand diagonally in front of me. If I take another step he'll do the same thing, etc., etc. I can tell him 'no' or 'uhh-uhh' but he'll still do it. Today for the first time he did it in the house. Does anyone know if this is a herding behavior or a dominance behavior and the best way to stop this?

Thanks!
