As a last resort, a bucket of water is the classic treatment! But the water or water/vinegar spray is great.

Remember as well to always tell the dog that started it off first and more. Otherwise they'll get well confused.

If you can find a GOOD dog training class, the fact that the dog's so big wouldn't be a problem. Our instructors are great at taking the bigger/stronger dogs when they get out of hand and they can make any dog behave! Also, using a check collar can help. You NEED to do classes and stuff IMHO, especially with strong dogs. What the vet said is total nonsense IMHO...puppies are allowed to be puuppies whilst getting training! And it's so important to socialise them properly.

Btw, little dogs being top dog is actually the norm in my experience! They usually have the attitude to be the boss despite their size.
