  I thought the same thing of Jack.  I started taking him for longer walks, 1 hour to 1 and a half hours daily, if not twice daily.  The other night he finally rolled onto his back in a submissive position and I rubbed his tummy for like 20 to 30 minutes easily.  And when I came home for break he wagged his tail and moved around all excited.  This is the first time I have ever seen him show any kind of affection toward me.  I was wondering if he had his own suttle ways.  It seemed to take time.  I would try playing with him when he bites you.  It might be him saying, "hey I would like you to play with me."  it doesn't hurt to give it a try.  Another thing I do to keep him from getting use to the same places is to take him on dfferent trails all the time. Good luck!
