Thanks guys! The only issue I seem to be having is that he has food aggression. It's only happened twice. Once at the pet store when I was walking him away from the pet food bags and he growled and tried to go back at them. And today at the park, he picked up what I think was half a hot pocket or something and wouldn't let it go (and was very primal and ferocious about keeping his new found food). His next obedience class is in a few days and I'm going to ask them but thought I'd get your opinions. And this might be weird to say on the forum, but it seemed like after the short struggle for his food he had ejaculated some. I'm thinking the sooner he gets neutered the better?
I watched the whole video last night. He is super adorable, and you are doing such a great job training him. I should have trained Koda to fetch as a pup. I mean really go get it and bring it back rather than just playing. He may have had fun with it.
Kais are super stubborn! And I think you are just seeing a bit of that. My female is food aggressive as well. There were times when she first came home that Koda was too scared to eat around her for fear she would torment him. We have gotten it under control, but are still mindful of her resource guarding.
You can always start a thread on that and get some advice from forum members. Are you sure he didn't pee out of excitement? Either way, it would be perfectly normal for a pup not to control bodily fluids when worked up. Hope you didn't have to clean him. ha ha ha
In regards to the ejaculation comment, can you describe this? Was there just a little discharge or was their visible liquid on the ground? What about the situation makes you assume ejaculate apposed to urine? (fishing for details here, not being argumentative)
When a female is in heat our intact boys will sometimes have some discharge on the sheath of their penis. Perhaps their was a female in heat around???
Thanks for the compliments! It was definitly not pee, thick stuff, smelled nothing like pee (didn't get up close but could smell it when he rolled over) and there was nothing on the ground. Plus it wasn't yellow. Brada1878: I don't have any other dogs at my house so whenever I feed him I do what I did on the video which is make him wait. Any advice on the neutering?

I do really like his brindle too. He's a cutie!

Was he possessive with you about the food, or just other dogs? Or both?
