Default Toy Aggression??

Lately spot has not been playing well with my neighbours dogs when they have toys. Usually they just chase eachother with the toys but lakely Spot has been growling when he gets it.

Is this normal?

some dogs are just more protective of their toys than others. I think the best solution would be to remove the toy when they're playing

If it is really aggressive I would also remove the toy.

Keepers growls when he plays, but that's just the noise he makes when he plays. It sounds pretty intense, and I'm sure the neighbors think Michael Vick lives next door, but that's just how he plays. As long as he stops when I say stop I figure I'm still in control and we're all good.
