Question
MY 5 MONTH MALE BULLDOG WANTS TO SUCK ON MY ARM EVERY NIGHT AN MOVES HIS WHOLE BODY AND WORKS HIS PAWS AS IF TRYING TO NURSE.  IS THIS NORMAL,,,  MY FEMALE HAS NEVER DONE THIS.  HE HAS NOT BEEN NEUTURED YET.

Answer
Hello Lori - Sure , it is normal especially if he was removed from his litter before 8 weeks of age.
HOW about you give him a chew toy when he starts sucking on your arm.
Try to get him to do something else with his time.
( a suffed animal, puppy chew toy.... any ideas?)

Good luck - he will grow out of this soon!
