And the family they live with is their pack. Long story that I won't go into here, but our 2 year old, 150 lb. male German Shepherd once challenged me for pack leadership. I still have small scar on my hand.
After a trip to our vet and one to a canine neurologist/psychologist (Yeah, REALLY.) the only acceptable solution was to have him castrated. The other 'solution' was to have him euthanized. Not acceptable. He was a good dog, and very protective of my family. I just didn't at the time understand pack mentality and made a bad situation worse. My bad. :-(
Max was with us for several more years, but much less aggressive.
