Fella / Jackaranian ??

My Fella is a sweet, stubborn little guy, at 6 weeks now, (he was taken from its mother way to early, and I rescued him from a lady who was going to have to put him in a humane society) he is sweet and very affectionate. I am having trouble with paper training him, but his age may account for that. I have curbed the nipping with him though, and this method is very effective. Every time he goes to nip, I hollar "OUCH" loudly and it stops him immediately. I got this very good advice off a web site (forgot the name lol) that advised the way the litter mates stop playful nipping is by squealing or growling. by saying ouch loudly they get the message. I wonder though if he is actually pom mixed with the russell, he doesn't look at all like the others on this site, he look like anyone else's??
