First of all, now that you know you have a problem, put just one dog at a time with the sheep. Maybe you know one is more aggressive than the other. Take the least aggressive.
There is no reason they can't guard both. Either take the dog to the sheep, or bring a sheep to the dog. You need to introduce them and the dogs should be able to understand you don't perceive the sheep as a threat. As someone else has suggested, the sheep will also have to know the dogs are not a threat. Sounds like maybe your dogs are still young. (Large dogs like this act like puppies until they are about 2 years old.) Anything that will run from a dog is fun to chase, and anything one dog is chasing the other is going to chase. Confine them and put them together. Might also want to mix them a few times while you are present and then separate them when you leave for a while.
