I wonder how much what happened at the opening was due to the instinct of his Animagus form. I mean, his form is a mutt, not a breed like a Shepherd or a Doberman that's bred to be a guard dog. But it was Fred and George's premises, and I suppose, as strongly as he feels toward them, he might have been extra protective. But then I imagine he might feel protective of all of his friends among the younger cohort. And yes, I'm sure there are going to be some tense situations in the castle these next few months, with this competition.
It's difficult. He can't prove a negative, that he'll never snap or snarl again, after all.
