6 Month Old Mini Aussie Biting!

Hi! We have a 6 month old, male mini Aussie. He's a very loving dog, very snugly and clingy but we've ran into some problems. He's been submissive since day one.

We got him when he was 8 weeks old and right off the bat he acted like he was abused or something. We got him from a great breeder and I'm pretty sure he wasn't abused but he acts like it. Whenever my husband calls him or tells him to come he rolls on his back and starts peeing. He does this when we get ready to leave and need him to be in the kitchen, rolls on his back and pees.

Our mini Aussie knows that my husband is the main leader in the house but he thinks he's dominant over me. For example, when I scold him and tell him "no!" and point my finger at him he tries to bite me. When I try to pick him up to bring him into the kitchen when we need to leave he shows his teeth at me and tries to bite. He does not do this to my husband.

I worry because I don't know what to do about this biting and we have a two year old and I definitely don't want him biting our son. What do we do? Any advice or tips would be great, thank you!
