You need training class.
Immediately. If this dog is not neutered, he would be going in for that the first available appointment, and I'm talking next week.
Being on the bed, nope nope nope nope. Allowing your dog up on the bed with you puts him on an equal status with you. He is already treating you as a subordinant.
This article has very good hands on easy to implement instructions on how to assume the leadership role, and how to present a leadership figure to your dog.
It will involve changing a lot of things in this dogs life, and also yours. These dogs can be turned around, but it takes dedication and resolve on the part of the owners.

Can you tell me how old this dog is, if he is indeed neutered, where he sleeps, if you feed him on a schedule or not, and if he guards things from you such as toys or food?
What training has he had?
What breed is he? Looked to be a boxer, but I could not really tell?
HOw old was this dog when you got him, or when was he removed from his litter, if you know?
