I have a 14 week old male staffie, he is generally well behaved and has been attending puppy classes for the last 4 weeks. The problem we have with him at the moment is that he is constantly using his teeth on us and will try to bite when you are putting his lead on, stroking him etc, he doesn't seem to be doing this aggressivly but I'm not sure what to do, any ideas?

He's a baby and it's normal however the "idea" is to let him know as Lel says it is unacceptable. Staff pups are normally quick to learn. But make sure if you can the whole family are working to the same rules. And that one or two aren't letting him "get away" with what you consider unacceptable, and try to remember that what you may consider "funny/amusing" now is not going to be so when he's a grown dog. So consistancy is the key.
