Yes, he certainly does look aggressive, Kathy! Guess his mother never taught him to play well with others! Great capture of him and perfect timing! #9198160

The fight to be number one and have control. Your timing is prefect as we usually see them so friendly and cute. He shows the real side of them and how aggressive they can be. What an amazing look you go here with him in the fight position, certainly has the facial expression of taking on all comers. A Nat Geo look my friend. Awesome. #9198639

He looks like he could use a large dose of Prozac for sure! :) Yep, the look in his eyes, his stance and the set of his mouth says it all...you've captured his aggressive manner excellently, Kathy! #9198809
