Yup this is true, I would follow what Sylvan says as it sounds like he is trying to be the protector of the house thus the alpha. If you isolate the dog that just teaches him that strangers are bad and when they come in he gets punished so he becomes more aggressive. Something else you can try is to have a bag of treats at the door so that when people come over they can provide him with a treat showing him that people coming is a good thing and not a bad thing. I guess that would depend on how food oriented the dog is. Good luck
