Question
Hi my name is Sherry and I was hopeing you could maybe give me some info or help me with my problem, We have a 3 1/2 month american bulldog he is the sweetest and a very smart boy very sociable with all other dogs and people so far, but when we go to disiplin him he is growling at us I think that it is that he is trying to be the dominate one but he is very vishious and it biting.

Answer
I would not have a dog in my home that bites.  It is very hard to break a dog of biting.  

Unless you are willing to put a lot of effort to breaking him of this, you should find someone that can/will.

There may be trainers in your area that specialize in dog behavior.

If you decide to find a new home for him, make sure to let the new owners know of this problem.

Whatever you decide, DO NOT let the biting continue.  There is too much risk in serious injury to you, your family or visitors to your home.
