My dog... The Sort of guard Dog!
The dog in my picture..beautiful boy..2years of age.... is very timid (even to me).. he has been barking most of the nights lately..protecting the land etc..this starts usually after eating..Today 4 strangers appeared on the land..i heard them from the house...i saw "quick quick!" (the dog) sunbathing and chewing a stick and didn't bat an eyelid at the possible pillagers...he also barks at me sometimes until he can see me.. very strange dog and i have known a lot of dogs in my life..although he is a good dancer..the dog has talent..

Dogs will be dogs!! They need to be fearful of strangers so maybe they think you're a stranger too?
The best way to deal with that is to go see what he is barking at (he has to see you doing it) and then reassure him that it is ok.
Now, my older dog who was very nervous, immediately looks at me when there is a strange noise or person at the door, whereas before she'd have reacted. I taught her by checking and reassuring.
