The way in which the animal is raised and the limits that are established in its socialization phase, that is, when it is a puppy, is of the utmost importance. If these have not been established at that stage, there is a high probability of having problems behavior when it grows up.
It is important to always consult a trusted veterinarian and, if necessary, contact an ethologist, a specialist in animal behavior. An inconvenience caught on time is usually manageable. There are owners who are not aware of it having an aggressive dog and when the animal becomes a dominant adult male it ends up being a problem.
If owners can manage it through an ethologist and follow what that specialist indicates, perhaps the animal will take the place it should. If the animal starts doing it show their dominion by barking, a small bite, frightening the owner and he obeys that order, the dog realizes that he has conquered the position of dominant male. So, if you want to challenge him in that moment, the animal fights against the person who challenged him. Therefore, this problem needs to be addressed since they are puppies
