[quote=Anonymous]OP, I wish you'd reconsider putting the dog down.  This sound EXACTLY like what happened to us, 15 yrs ago.  Except the dog in question was a Corgi.  Almost identical problem.  Would only let my husband near him (after a couple of years of being fine with me and DS, who was 4 at the time).  Long story short, we gave him away to a lady who lived alone and always owned Corgis.  He died a couple of years ago (keeping in mind the original incident was over 15 yrs ago, and he was about 3 yrs old when we gave him away) after living a happy life with her--no kids, no constant chaos in the house.

He also bit me, twice.  Not hard, not super viciously, but similar to what you describe.  He hated the noise and everything that comes with an active family.  We have since then had Rottweilers, who actually love it--they are always in the room with the most people, usually under your feet.  Much better family dogs--they love the attention, even of small kids.

Try to find him a home with nobody else in it if  you can.  In the mean time, crate him and put your DH in charge of him--that's what we had to do.[/quote]
