Here are some resources on the subject:

Well, thaqt may be, but he doesnt bark at people walking down the road, or other animals, only when they get near the fence, and it is way far from the road!. He has LOTS of play dates with other dogs, it is only big dogs he does that too!!! I have tried to let him play with my mother in laws dog, but he attacks her as soon as he sees her, and then you have to immediatly separate them. It is very frustrating to me, I know!
