A new column has been published in the Pupforum Ask a Trainer section:

Mastiff Puppy, Fearful Or Dominant?
Mastiff puppy, is his barking dominant or fearful? I have 8 mastiffs, all fit into slots of dominant and so on down the pecking order. All eat together and we have only the occasional minor disagreement. I have always known how to deal with each dog, but I have a 4 month old make who is sending cross signals , when I take him out and he sees strange dogs, he barks nonstop, stands stiff legged and alert, chest extended, hackles up, head and tail raised. If the other dog approaches him, he turns tail and runs away; stopping to turn and bark....
