His behavior is also like the rest of you described. He's a teenager. I also read somewhere that they go through their second teething at this age. Thank goodness I was a high school teacher and am used to dealing with teenagers.
I have never been so stern with Max as I am now. Teens need boundaries on top of boundaries and then they still try to push the envelope.

Great points! I'm having the same issue with my little guy, and I think I'm going to call today to schedule his neutering. We were waiting for his second testicle to descend (so he didn't have to have a more extensive surgery) - but I'm not certain that it's going to before he drives me to the nut house. He's 8 months old.
