Tell him you dont like the nature of his jokes and ask him to get some new material that doesnt involve your family pet and anal sex. Infact you could try getting him a joke book and see if that inspires him. Failing that. Have a joke back at him and say youre starting to wonder about his fixation with the dog and ask if hes ok!

You can offer him passive resistance. When he cracks that joke, get up and move away from him. He would get the message.

If he does it again, leave the room and ignore him for a while.

Maybe it's better to tell your mom in private and ask her to correct him in private. Make sure to tell ur mom not to tell your dad that you have asked her to correct ur father.

Tell him that you dont wanna hear about that kind of stuff and that it makes you feel uncomfortable.He should respect that and stop.
