You could also get the person that visits and causing the reaction to film it. That way we can see better the shape of the eyes and if he is staring them down or w/e.

The behaviors you described do not sound like aggression to me but guardian behaviors. As your dog is a guardian breed, these behaviors are not unreasonable, but you will want to work on obedience so that your dog looks to you for a command after allerting. What you do not want to happen is for him to make a decision to act on a threat on his own, as he may misjudge what is a threat and what is not.

You're improving your ideas.I have to find the person is willing to do it because many people are scared at him.Thank you man

Well he hasn't bitten or attacked anyone right? He isn't showing teeth. Do his hackles go up(the hair on his back)? Do you feel that he is dangerous? If you don't think he is dangerous, just invite someone you know over for dinner and ask them to film on their way in and don't offer an explanation unless they ask for one lol. Then you can explain I've been working with my dog on his guarding impulses and I want you to film so I can have a reference for our improvement. IF you do think he might be dangerous, personally I'd do the same thing only this time make sure you have a firm grip on his leash lol. If you think he is dangerous to another person though you might be better off not following this advice. I'd hate for you to be doing something just because I told you to and someone gets bit.

Or simply use a muzzle. Then at least you know for sure he can't bite anyone. [video=youtube;dbcJdThGG-A]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbcJdThGG-A[/video]

Teach anyone that comes to your house how to act when the dog comes barking and charging at them. Be still, don't run, don't scream, yell or attack the dog, don't baby talk/squeaky talk the dog, don't approach the dog, don't try to pet/grab the dog, keep your eye on the dog at all times, try to remain calm and don't piss yourself.

If my dog was barking and someone started hitting them they would bite. No doubt in my mind. If he didn't bite that lady I'm sure he's actually a lot better off than I was thinking lol. Poor al capone, not very smart move wife's friend...

Yes, don't do this. When I said keep eyes on dog, I meant know where the dog is and tell your visitors to call ahead of time lol.

Yes Hector I told the lady don't do that, but she scream "he is going bite me" and kept hitting soft Al Capone. You right I yell at him, he doesn't listen. But I won't yell and I won't pee.lol
