excited

[deegary]

Is it just my bull dog or do other bull dog do this.... when we are playing and he gets a little excited he will jump up at me thats fine even though he could knock me over with his weight... THEN he will snip my leg.,
just above my knee at the side... not a bite more like a little peck. is it becauce he is excited, or as my hubby says a love kiss it doesnt hurt or cause a bruise. is my baby boy showing me who is master

Samson has never done that before. I know herding dogs do that because it's in there nature to try to herd you but not sure why your Walter would be doing it. It may be a dominance thing??????

Walter is just a little tinker who i love the bones of ahhhhhhhhhhhh

Chance does that (or something similar) when he is overly excited. He only does that with his dad or I so I suspect (not an expert) that it is a combo of excitement and a desire to be the pack leader in the house. We will typically force him to the floor and make him lie quietly if we find his play is becoming too aggressive.

My Frenchton Louie has been doing this lately to us, just like you described. A lil side nip...just a minor nibble when he's excited. BabyGirl side nips my knee too but when she is restless. If it gets anymore aggressive I would not put up with it though. I told my husband to immediately stop playing and say "NO" whenever they do that.
