Poor baby! I would consider putting him on an anti-anxiety Medicine as the biting is likely fear or anxiety driven. Your vet should be able to prescribe this. You can also have a behaviorist evaluate him to help get tools and advice on the best meds and training for him. Training and behavior is very in depth and without an evaluation it is difficult to say exactly wha needs to be done. I hope this helps.
