I am the proud owner of a mixed race dog. He is about 6-7 years now. I adopted him 5 years ago and since day one he was the most social and well-behaved dog that I have ever seen before to the point of being uncanny: he only barks when he hears someone is inside our property, never destroys anything inside the house, he only goes to pee and poo on grass, etc.
When I adopted him he was very playful with other dogs, from big to small, from young to old and regardless of the dog's gender.
Two years ago he bit my sister's dog pretty bad because he bit him. I thought it would be an isolated incident because he was attacked first, but ever since he has been more territorial to other male dogs to the point in which I cannot take him to the dog park if there are male dogs. He has no problem playing with female dogs.
I was hoping someone can give me any theories of why this is happening at this point of his life and to receive advice on what to do, because I am afraid I'm doing something wrong and that the aggression may escalate to any dog or even humans.
My dog is nuetered, by the way.
