I think you need to discover *why* he's behaving like this - does he feel threatened? Does he feel it's his place to gaurd? There must be some kind of reward for the dog to keep up a behaviour like this. Then you can start to treat the cause - and ignoring or spraying do often help, but you have to keep it up, and do it 100% without fail, or the dog will get positive feelings from the one time you let your gaurd drop - and you're back to square one :(
