  Hi everyone,
  
  I can’t seem to get rid of this problem – Gustav bites my boyfriend, whenever he gets to be around him. He doesn’t do anything bad to the bunny, in fact, he pays little attention to it. I tried to bond them by putting the bunny on the sofa while we were watching TV, and he doesn’t exhibit any aggression, he just climbs on and off our laps, but never misses a chance to bite my boyfriend.
  
  I can’t seem to end this behavior and my boyfriend is starting to fear my bunny
  
  P.S.He doesn’t bite me, and rarely bites anyone else.

  Maybe he’s biting your boyfriend to get attention?

  Maybe your boyfriend smells good? Does he wear cologne or axe? Bunnies discover things with their mouths like babies so your bun is probably trying to figure out who this strange person is. If this has been going on for a long time however, perhaps your bunny is just being possessive and doesn’t want to share her human.

  Bunnies have “favorite” people, just like dogs and cats. Perhaps your bun is trying to get his attention, like LPT suggested. Or he is telling your boyfriend to get out of his way.

  Yes, could be that. He is not doing anything bad, but now, he seems quite afraid of the bunny (which is soo funny, coz he is one of those large friendly lumberjack types ;D), ;D
