Could you let them outside to play? Also how much exercise are they getting during the day?

Staffs do play rough! Maybe distract them with a stuffed kong each?

My boys are allowed to play as much as they want inside, but they are taught 'enough' for when i need them to calm down i.e if people are visiting.

So i taught the command enough, to which they stop play and get a treat

Hi emma we have a staffy and my inlaws a shar pei. When together they play fight like crazy we use a water spray bottle that stops them. Worth a try
