Thanks for the comments. He is the biggest pup and he likes to be the dominant male but he also allows the allow two pups to tackle him and bite on his ears (playfully). He enjoys his littermates and likes to initiate play...tug of war, pulling the poddy pad around the den and making the others follow. The smaller male will sometimes jump into the mix and help mom try to tackle the big pup. When this happens, he becomes really angry and "verbal."

He's incredibly sweet with humans. None of this behavior observed. He licks and kisses your face and loves his belly to rubbed so he doesn't have a problem being rolled on his back. He makes frequent eye contact and watches me from his pen while I'm doing chores around it, i.e. doing dishes, picking up, etc. I think he's very smart and alert...he's been this way since a very young age (few weeks old.)

Thanks again for the advice...keep it coming!!
