I would ensure that the dogs are worked in basic obedience to assist in forming your "hierarchy" and assuring that you are the one who dictates what behavior is acceptable or not as well as that the dog does not have a claim on you but rather sees you as the Alpha and through appropriate training, conditioning etc. finds its place in the hierarchy. Get the dogs a job to do! Achieving this status may include numerous minor "actions" which accumulative assist in getting more control over your dogs. In your case, with opposite sexes and the age difference, this shouldn't be to difficult.
