Sounds like son Max is trying to "assert" himself, perhaps he is the "underdog" of the two males, or perhaps the other part of his line has some aggression problems. Hard to say. He certainly has some "territory" issues. My suggestion is when he shows the aggression, have a very loud horn or other unpleasant "behavioral modifier" you can use on or around him. By association when he shows aggression, then he experiences something unpleasant. I'll bet he catches on quick. Don't hit him, but don't allow him to "dominate" in YOUR house.
