If he does pee in the house do not clean it up with products that contain ammonia, bleach, many disinfectants etc, this will encourage Oscar to fowl in the same place due to the ammonia smell. Use products like ' formula H by pet life', or johnsons clean and safe, available in many a good pet shop including the one i work at 
Other products to look at are. 'wee wee pads' or 'swifty(made by sherleys or beapher as its now known)' both are effective in toilet training.
Weres your puppy? lol you were the one who brought an English Springer lol .
hope it helps

Thanks Dac, he's a great little chap, he has worn himself out now and is snuggled up next to me on the floor. I guess the nipping is just teething and not anger?
