It's a myth that dry food is better for there teeth brushing there teeth is the best thing for teeth. He is nipping because he should still be with his mom until 12 weeks and she would teach him about biting and other things. He should be in a crate at night so he can't potty every where and so he stays safe and dosent get hurt. Make sure you put the crate where he can see you and he may cry the first couple of nights but only take him out to potty. Royal Canin is an excellent food they actually have vets on staff and test there food to make sure it works right and most of the "holistic" brands everyone says are so great don't. I would not switch his food for at least a month. Also don't take him to parks, pet stores or any dog heavy traffic places until he gets all of his shots. You will need a few more chew teething toys and probably a play pen to keep him in when you can't watch him. Also make sure if you use a collar it is only for id tags and if you using the leash you use a harness. You may also want to look into pet insurance that covers genetic issues.
