Another thing you can try is NILF or Nothing in Life is Free. It's a gentle way of reminding your dogs, every day, that you are in charge. They must sit before their food is put down; sit before they go out the door . . .

I can't remember all of it but you can google NILF.

We practice it every day. No food is given until everyone's butt in on the floor. No one is allowed to go near the front door when the bell rings . that's my space and they all know to stay away.

It might not solve all your problems, but it is a good, mannerly, way of reminding everyone that YOU are in charge.
