I am a new member and I have a 9 week old gorgeous staffy pup called Louie. This is all very new to me and have lots to learn, my main concern at the moment is his nipping, any advice?
Hes usally quite laid back and then suddenly he'll have crazy moments and starts nipping and biting our feet lol!

Hi and welcome to the forum from Rocky and me.

Try turning your back on him when he does the nipping, just turn around and ignore him he will soon get the message that this behaviour does not get you attention. Lots of praise when he is good though.

Thanks for all your welcomes Big Grin
We are tackling Louies nipping by making aloud ouch noise then turning our backs to him and if he gets really crazy we put him in time out, must admit today has been slightly easier, little monkey bless him Love Struck
