This is just a suggestion, but it worked for me ... whenever Monday barked (usually when people were coming in or were leaving) ... I put about 5-10 pennies in an empty soda can (sealed the top with tape) and shook it ONCE (downward movement) -- the noise got her attention -- and then I'd say NO BARKING! and then go "shhhh shhh ... now all I have to do is say "Shhh Shhh" and the barking stops ...

try that .... hope it helps ...

about the nipping, I have no experience with that, but I sure wouldn't leave the baby on the floor with Sox running about! (Maybe the "penny shake" would help with that as well????) It does kinda stop them in their tracks.
Good Luck...
