Hi Sharon, I'll copy some advice I gave someone else on here below. I'll just add that an alpha does not compromise or negotiate and make sure to follow through when they are misbehaving, issue the command, if they don't listen an alpha would silently go to them and correct them. Show them there are consequences for ignoring the master, follow through don't get lazy with corrections, the same consistency that housebroke them will rid them of this too.Max will growl and snap at him and it keeps escalating. Last night Max bit Ken and didn't even stop. Ken body slammed him to the floor and sat on him until he became submissive. I then put him in his crate so I could tend to Ken. Any suggestions on how to stop this escalation in the future?

Shromada,If Ken keeps directed him to do something, like down, and Max doesn't 'want to' do it (even after repeated commands), Ken will get up to command him again.

Shromada,
I am wanting to make sure I am understanding the situation correctly. I took your post to mean that Ken is sitting on the couch and asks Max to 'sit', when Max doesn't sit, Ken asks him a couple more times, then Ken stands up and tells Max to 'sit' and places Max into the 'sit' position (like everybody is taught at obedience school). The only time Ken body slammed Max to the ground and sat on him is after Max bit him. Am I correct?
