Default My pup's hackles raised

My daughter and I took our nearly 6 month old puppy to play fetch at the school. There were childern playing basket ball. About 12 or 13 years old. We were pretty far off.
The ball rolled about 20 feet away from him. He payed no attention to the ball, but when the boy came to get the ball he raised a paw and his hackles raised. And he just stared at the kid. Now with my other dogs raised hackles means bad news. So what kind of behavior is this in a puppy? Is he just saying "stranger danger!" ???
