Just got a new pup, but he seems to have an aggressive personality when other people come too close to me, particularly men. It's so embarressing! He's actually a sweet pup, but he starts barking and biting my friends and relatives

Anyone with a dog have any advice to stop my puppy's bad behavior? lol

It would be greatly appreciated.

you should try to get him to know as much people as possible, get him to socialize, take him out more, he is like a human being. Imagine if you were to be locked up for the whole day and be let out once in a while, not knowing who the unknown beings are you would obviously start to act hostile to them, hence you dont want them to attack you.

I take him almost everywhere and he still barks and bites...

Grab his snout and point at him and say in a very stern voice "NO(fill in pup's name here)!" that works for my friend's dog and both of my cats they'll get used to the tone of your voice and eventually they'll learn not to do it... don't just try it once or twice if hes still a pup hes got to learn and the repetitiveness of it will make him understand... if that still doesn't work once you say no put him in a time out in a cage and leave him for a little while.... it might break your heart but if you want them to learn you're going to have to show some tough love.
