Re: Leg cocking
yes its normal even if they have been castrated they will raise there legs.at 11 months he is starting to mature so he will want to spray as high up as possible this is done so when other males sniff the side of a tree etc they will detect his scent.

Re: Abrupt Aggression?? Need advice...
when you say she keeps coming into heat.if its been a few times and shes only 1 then it sounds a if she could have urine infection.i would take her to the vets to be checked over and book her in to be spayed.if she has an infection then she will be grumpy and aggressive.

by what you have written it sounds as if you have a dominant male who is going to stand up for himself when challenged and is also is going to let other males know hes in charge.at 4 months old it would be best to take him to training lessons there in a supervised enviroment with professional traine...
