Someone on here might have a suggestion. I watch all the dog shows on TV, but this little guy is getting us all down. We "adopted" a FREE full blooded Boston Terrier. UH-HUH, Oreo is now 4.5 months old and weighs in at about 20#+ and has legs as long as mine (ok, I am short legged for a human, but his legs are at least 18" long!!!) and bites. He is in the goofy puppy stage, but this dog has the most pronounced disposition I have ever seen. He LOVES to sleep on my bed at night, but he goes through this routine of dancing and jumping forward and snapping at my hands, which out of love are outstretched to help him up, and barking. It is hilarious to watch, but my dh, son and me are all three carrying scars because of his teeth. He just plain loves to bite when he is playing and he is just plain brutal about it. I smack him with a newspaper when he does it, and say NO very plainly, but this guy will run off a little ways and then turn and bark back at me . . he is something else. He just wrestles our little black Onyx, who has allergies and has sparse fur till Onyx is crazy, and has to hide in my closet. I suspect pit bull, although I have known many pit bulls and never had one with this type of biting issue. I also see German Shepard and Great Dane bloodlines. DS has scratches and marks from those teeth, which as you all know are like needles. Does anyone have a good idea of what to do to make him stop this biting? Other than a bullet please, or rehoming. I don't want someone else having to deal with him. He lays on his back, with these big ears standing straight up (he inherited the ears from his truly full blooded BT mama, and they stand up!!) and with his teeth showing, he looks just like a bat. I should get a picture of it. He seems to be slowing down a little on his activities, and is a pretty good guy other than this wanting to bite us. He has definite ideas about sleep; DON'T TOUCH ME. He growls like a mountain lion if you try to move him so you can at least have 6" of bed. I would gladly welcome some ideas!!!
