I have a great sheperd mix. very smart. Very good natured. very submissive to me. He has had obedience training. Only problem is , he has fear issues, i guess. When we first got him he did a lot of submissive urination. That has gradually decreased but he is still a p***y. We live in a not too great neighborhood. We've finally got him to bark at people coming through our alley. The other day though, I came thru our alley and approached our yard with a hood on and walking funny. He didn't recognize me and began barking and howling. I came into the gate and he ran up onto the deck, still barking and pretty much stayed away from me. I don't want our dog to attack people or bite but I would like him to be more intimidating. If someone enters our yard, i want him snarling and lunging(not necessarily biting). Any tips?
