Wish I could ever sleep as well as the boys do when they’ve just done property damage they don’t have to pay for 🥰

This game is called “Hungry Hungry Hippo” (for obvious reasons)
I got my first German Shepherd in 1989, and I’ve owned them constantly for the past 20 years.
My boy Hawk is 3 now, and in the past 2 weeks he’s started displaying some really aggressive and unusual behavior. I’ve never seen anything like this, and it seems so strange for this to just pop up seemingly out of nowhere after owning him since he was a puppy.
When dinner time comes around and I have the bowl in my hand getting ready to set it down for him, he starts to come at me as if I were a stranger in the house. Growling and bearing his teeth and everything. It’s really terrifying and I’ve been losing a lot of sleep over this. He hasn’t attacked me yet, but it feels like he wants to. It feels so horrible having this sweet boy that I’ve raised and loved his whole life suddenly acting like I don’t belong in his house.
I’ve always been strict about making him sit and wait for me to put the bowl down, but now if I try to enforce that rule he instantly goes into that attack-mode.
Has anyone heard of anything like this happening? Any tips or advice?
