Not really. A dog submissive to his owner normally does not bite his owner. An abused dog, a dog that sees himself as pack leader instead of follower, or a dog that has been pushed to the point that he attacks will bite.

No, it is not normal for a dog to bite their owner. Biting can be a sign of fear, aggression, pain, or other underlying issues. It is important to address the behavior with a professional trainer or behaviorist to understand the cause and prevent future incidents.

Why would a dog bite his owner He is a mixed terrier?

Dogs bite for many reasons. Dogs, like people, have their own temperament. Some breeds of dogs may be more or less inclined to have an easy disposition. Even within a breed there can be great variability. Terriers can be feisty dogs. They are often quite pain-resistant and so are not really afraid of being bitten back (by dogs). Terriers can be very smart dogs, and can easily be trained not to bite but as with all dogs this training is best started when they are puppies. Many dogs, even terriers, never bite. It is extremely unacceptable to have a dog that is not safe around people and it is up to the owner to make sure that their dog is trained properly. How a dog is trained and raised and the environment a dog lives has great impact on its inclination to bite. Reasons a dog might bite: Perhaps it was not trained NOT to bite. Was the dog taunted by the owner? Was the owner playing with the dog, in which case the dog may have gotten overexcited? Was the dog in pain... did it have an injury or is it perhaps arthritic? Dogs that feel threatened or are in pain may be more inclined to try and protect themselves.

How severe does a dog bite have to be to sue?

First of all, your priority should be "Do I need medical attention" not "Can I sue". However, if the bite was severe enough to warrant medical attention AND you were not at fault for the bite (be honest here) then you should approach the dog's owner about being reimbursed for any expenses. If the dog's owner refuses a reasonable request for reimbursement THEN consider making a small claim; NOT before. jeez, what is WRONG with people?

What might a dog do that causes its owner to say no?

A dog might dig up an owner's flower's bed and make the owner say no, bad dog. Also a dog could poop or pee on the owner's brand new carpet and make the owner say no, bad dog. One last thing that could make a dog's owner say no to them is if the dog and there owner was on a walk and the dog ran so fast the owner couldn't catch up and the dog would run off into mischief. I know if it was my dog I would scream no a lot then say sorry to him/her later on. Too bad I don't even have a dog!!!


Is it normal for a mother dog to bite her 3 day old puppies?

She probably isn't biting them. It is more like she is nipping them. This is normal. This usually occurs as a sign of discipline when the puppies are being rough. The mother dog will tolerate the puppies, but she will control her young when they nurse to hard.
