[QUOTE="SaraT, post: 91136, member: 2270"] Having 3 big dogs I know they can be scary to others. I would not give them treats as that is telling them "good boy" for barking at you. Instead I would show no fear, as dogs pick up on this, and tell them NO in a stern but calm voice. Then simply ignore them and go about your business. (Easier said then done I know.) It sounds like these big dogs are trying to be dominant, or possibly just bored. If they are not being exercized then boredum could be a reason for their behavior. If you ignore them you take away their dominance. It has worked for me in the past, and it has broken several Rottweillers from thinking they were in charge. I hope you can take back you yard.
