Welcome to YT and congrats on your new baby boy. He is just a BABY, he is not being "nasty" he is being a baby and has to be taught what is acceptable and what is not. As Maximo stated it is best a puppy stays with it's mom and litter mates who will teach them hard biting is NOT acceptable. You now have to play the role of momma dog and teach him this. My own personal experience with many 8 week old "wild" lol puppies was to firmly say "no biting" and walk away, or stop the play. You and your family must be consistent and use the same command words. Maximo has given you excellent advise. "Be firm, but not angry or frustrated".
