🤔Hmm,...unless the older dog is set upon killing the youngster, as opposed to simply putting it in it's place, albeit drawing blood (most unusual) I would let nature take its course....Facts are, your

perhaps just setting dominance and order? Id crack on as usual and if it happened again perhaps give the agressor a bit of a thrashing so it knows its not tolerated and niether are above eachother and

Can't see what 'getting him done' will achieve. I'm no dog behaviour specialist, but the dogs I have seen, including two that my old man owned, that were castrated, due to aggressive tendencies'

Thanks for all the reply’s gents it is much appreciated and more or less has just confirmed what I guessed. The balls off was as much as anything to appease the wife but don’t think I’ll bother now. A little bit of extra info the older dog has got a fresh cut (scabbed today) on his ear and his sensitive about his ears so I wonder if pup nipped with sharp little teeth and he overreacted?? Getting him checked at the vet tomorrow just to make sure everything is ok also.

This is perfectly natural,...after all, we are talking canines here, not human siblings. 

I would not place too much faith in getting a dog's balls cut off , to make him think differently of the pup,...he needs to come to this himself...

Your job, is to keep and eye on the situation and most importantly,. work both dogs as hard and as often as you possibly can,....every availably moment should be spent in the field, either on the hunt,.. or just mouching around,....

Exercise cures most problems....😉

Dogs that are attacked by other dogs can really be affected big time as I know only to well. 
No advice to give as I made right hash of my old dog :)

Mines long gone mate. I actually ended up with a dog that actually wanted to hunt dogs with same enthusiasm as he would a fox. Once I twigged he never went off the lead again. It was stressful few years 😂
