The reaction tells me, that the pup/dog feels uncomfortable, insecure and even scared and therefore it barks.

I suggest you work them separately… take them out of “nowhere” and bring them to busy streets, stores with crowds of people etc. and work with confidence.

That's odd, because I have read that dogs that are fearful will bark and back up or bark only, while he barks and runs towards the noise or person and seems to show no fear! He does this mainly at night when there are weird noises around. Last night when he did, I found a deer in our land. I thought this was normal, since all dogs around are barking at all sorts of things. When I take him on the closest busy street he doesn't bark at all, even at trucks strangers, cars etc.
