Albino German Shepherd

hi, I don't mean to jump in all guns blazing but nipping the postman? Aside from the obvious legal issues, are you not concerned that your dog has learned it's ok to bite?

I'm not saying it's a bad dog but it sounds like the dog needs some boundaries put in place and requires training.
"there seems to be something between most dogs and postmen" - no, your dog is guarding and the postman is seen as an intruder, similar to any stranger, cat rat or bat! Try introducing the dog to the postman - worked a treat for our barker - assuming the postman is willing to risk another bite. The behaviour is correctable, but requires the dog be trained. This is serious...
 
also "It should be but, as far as he's concerned, if we keep him in, on a lead, an eye on him etc etc etc, he'll behave himself! So, we do!"

and you're willing to take the legal and moral risk of having this dog in your care? good luck to you.. how would you feel if it's a small child next?

As regards the 2 yr old thing - I'd say there's no truth to it
