Aggressive towards other dogs

[Benjammin]

Just as of this year duckhunting my dog has been aggressive towards my buddies dog with the ducks and geese that we get, My buddies dog can be 20 feet away and mine starts growling at him because he's close to the Pile of ducks. Any suggestions for what I could do with this.. The past two years never been like that. And real recently at home with my lab when there eating he's doing the same thing occasionally. All I've done so far is when he does it I tell him no and make him stop my going grabbing and pulling away . Suggestions please!

Do the dogs interact when not hunting? If they don't know each other, they may have decided the other is the enemy, stealing his prey. Just a thought.

Don't hunt the two together; it's highly unlikely you can alter the behavior.

Yes they have been around each other for two years both hunting and not and never done it before now.

Google resource guarding and institute NILIF (Nothing in Life is Free). Modify that for your hunting scenario or just don't hunt the two dogs together.

Were they young? Up to 2 years old? Things change after 2 years of age often.
