I disagree about using thier name when yelling and or disciplining. Never do that. That would be a bad association. Never yell at all. Don't even raise your voice. They read actions better.
You need to show more authority to them. Show them YOU are the alpha and YOUR in charge. When they start looking as if they are going to go at it, step in the middle with your palms to each of their faces and just make sure you DO feel in charge. They can pick up on vibes. Take them by the cuff of the neck for restraining if necessary and just hold them like that untill they calm down. You have got to take charge of this situation before one of them gets seriously hurt. I've seen dogs get their eyes put out over this same behavior. |
