I have no experience in having 2 dogs together, but he still is very young and probably trying to see how far he can go.
Please stay at it and perhaps just put him somewhere for a few secs to calm down and ignore. I am sure everything will be fine. Big Grin

I don't have two dogs either but a pup so young can't be aggresive, he is pushing boundaries as said above. Are they both male?

Contrary to belief it doesn't always "fix" things, 6 months is quite young to be getting him done as they should go through adolescence. It s advisable to wait til 18 to 24 months, although your vet will probably push for sooner rather than later. Big Grin

Castration isn't a cure for behavioural problems. Is your bitch entire? If she is, you need to figure out what to do when she comes into season next.

The rounding on you is probably just a reaction due to him being over excited. I'd try and stop the play before it gets to that stage.
