    Re: Being protective of treats

    Hello and welcome.

    You might be right about him being food aggressive
    because having to share his food with 10 other puppies.
    He might had had a bad experience too before
    you ever got him.

    What I might suggest since Cooper is only 15 weeks
    old, is start hand feeding and possible not
    feed him around the other dogs for now. Let him relax
    when eating his food or treats.
    If it looks like he will grab another dogs treat,
    nip it in the bud before he even gets the chance.
    When giving treats make sure the dogs each
    have a little space from each-other too.

    Cooper is only a puppy but when he gets
    bigger a fight might occure.

    This sight might help, looks like yahoo mail group
    and talks about aggression on the question and answer icon.
