Stopping Nipping Behaviors

Filed in - manners - nipping

My two dogs, Shay and Dash, are very close in age and pretty much grew up together. They LOVE to wrestle and play with eachother.

Dash is a Cattle dog mix, and Shay is a Border collie, so there is a strong amount of prey drive in both of them.

My problem is whenever I let them out of my room to go outside or be free in the house, Dash does his instinctive cattle dog nipping behaviors at Shay. Shay starts to wrestle with him in return. They slam into the tables, etc. Plus, the other dogs join in by barking and trying to get in on the wrestle,

Are there any tips you can give me to help me stop these behaviors in the house?
