I would recommend discussing his behavior with a trainer. My concern is if he is already aggressive at 4 months of age it can just get worse. Working with a trainer now is very important. I would bring him to a veterinarian tomorrow to discuss this with them. Thank you for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach.
