You didn't mention if this boy was neutered or not. This may or may not have anything to do with it.



Something you might try is to get into a scheduled routine with him for attention. This way he will know that you are totally his during your special time together, and might not be so inclined to attack to get attention.



Other than that, if you see him getting ready to attack you might try to carry a squirt bottle and when you see him get ready to pounce just spray the ground in front of him and then walk away with no word to him at all.



Just a few ideas I was kicking around in my head.
