When she stares down cash or growls or lunges, its a quick eh-eh sound and either a command to the kennel or a send away command. Something that will absolutely give her the message that you will not tolerate this. There is no reward for her and no apology on your part during this time. You may feel bad because you yelled at her but she isn't getting hurt. She's going to try and tell you she's getting hurt so you stop correcting the behavior she wants to do.
Thank you, I've been telling her NO & sending her to the big bed.

She has calmed right down. Today she didn't care that Cash was near me.


And correcting her in this situation will not make her useless when a stranger comes to rob you.[/QUOTE]
THats not what I meant.. I meant I have always thought of her as useless when it came to a guard dog. THe joke has always been, that she'll great the robber & show him where all the good are hehehe Shes just so friendly of a dog that its 100% shocking when she showed some agression
