Hi, that's neat that you have a Cockapoo--all of us want one since my father and I have allergies.

Anyway you could try to give your dog toys to chew on, with or without those dog toys with treats in them. Or you could, every time he nips say, "No." firmly that way he learns that nipping is bad.

That's a dog's behavior that needs attention on training. You should not encourage his nipping, destruct it immediately like by spraying water to his face or dropping a can, then look at his eyes and say a firm "no" or "stop". Also when he seemed to just playing, the hand exchange with toy will help.
