If you're gonna try the Alpha method, do it right. Muzzle it first. Then firmly put it onto it's back, it will realise it cannot hurt you. The whole idea is to stare it down, until it looks away first, otherwise it's achieved nothing. You may have to repeat it a few times, but it'll get the hang of it and if you do it right, it won't get aggressive with you again. Some corrective obedience training cannot hurt either, as reinforcement for the Alpha.

Well. If you're the brave sort...
Catch the dog by the neck when it tries to bite you. You may still get some bites,but they won't be anything severe. Flip it onto it's back and keep it there. You're forcing it into a submissive position... but you be careful if you decide to try this. You COULD get very badly injured if you underestimate the pup.

make him your friend. find a treat thats small but can t be eaten too fast. burnt bacon dipped in peanutbutter should take him a min . treats are good , but if its too small or the dog can just swollow it up , it doesnt give the dog enough time to realize your his friend
time is the key, dont be shy , and dont let the dog have control
if you wipe peanutbutter on his nose or chin , is a good way to have some fun .

It would require the owner to do something about it. I would recommend staying away from the dog as much as possible. Obviously its being allowed to act like that and as long as the owner doesnt do anything about it the dog wont behave.

that dog needs help, it sounds anti social. somebody has too be a pack leader and correct the dog every time the dog shows aggression. this should be done buy a person that knows what their doing, this could take some time
