if they are screaming,Could be as simple as a mouse or a slug  had pups do it to me couple of times once they had noticed a slug moving out of their reach and another time a mouse was living in the brick wall next to the kennel , check for  anything moving around in your yard at night could even be a spider

Are they kenneled inside or out side had a dog here like that couple year ago nonstop barking it was a pup I gave shovel shy and he gave him back  at 9months old said he was over stocked I knew after 3 days why he gave him back this dog never stopped barking and bouncing of walls non stop it was. I gave to a mate that was low on dogs I asked him after a week how the was getting on he said fine no noise from him he just made out he had him in an open run seemed ta do the trick he still has him 3 yrs later.

Are they cold ?

I woke up 1 morning 5:30 a black staff i had was howling flat out in the kennel.

I called him to the front of the run and threw a full bucket of cold water over him.

Woke up the next morning he was howling again.

So I went up called him to the front of the run again and then showed him the bucket.

He ran back in the kennel.

I placed the bucket just outside the run gate.

So he woukd spend all day looking at the bucket.

And he knows what the bucket can do.

He was as quiet as a mouse from that day on..

If you can work out how to get into there heads problems can be solved much easier.

Sounds like boredom to me how often do you take them out are they exercised enough mentally and physically and if one starts the other not far away do you go out every time they start because if so it may be they know they will get your attention
