I agree with Debbie that this puppy behavior is due to not being corrected and not being a strong alpha - If you do not like a behavior you must correct it every single time.
Dillon is also not a nipper and not a barker, he will bark at the appropriate times ( doorbell, daddy's home, someone at the door, and to alert me in what he considers an emergency - like when my elderly cat throws up, he barks to get me to come check on her) and he is also a low energy corgi...he likes his walks but is content inside to nap and quietly chew on his bone or one of his toys. I started training him from day one to let him know what is acceptable in our house and what was not, and he learned very quickly. It took a few firm no's and redirection to play with something appropriate.
