5 year old male labrador growling?

September 29, 2013 By All About Labradors

5 year old male labrador growling?

A few days ago our female yellow lab got stung and was hurt. She is two years old.

He is okay now but this weekend our 5 year old male Labrador growled several times at our 30 year old son and also barked at him.

Our son lives with us and Sunny has never done this before. Sunny also would run and block anyone from going near our sweet Sally.

I had 4 children in our home this weekend and Sunny Boy also growled at the kids for no reason and would almost block anyone from getting near her.

When I would scold him he would stop but should I be concerned?

He and Sally are very sweet and have always been so gentle.
