First of all, I would suggest taking your dog to the vet. It sounds like something is bothering him. Often when a dog starts randomly acting in a strange way it means that he is sick. I know my dog has acted in a subdued, even sad way in the past, and we've had to take her to the vet, who found the problem and helped her get better.

So you should probably get a veterinarian to check your dog right away; if he's biting himself maybe he's itchy from fleas or something else. Or maybe he's not getting enough food? You'll notice that as soon as he's healthier he'll behave better again. I hope your dog gets better soon.

As for the skulls, it's because the swear filter took away the "sh*t" from "sh*tzu."
