It took awhile but she is no longer treated as the omega in the pack. I'm alpha and the rest know there is no room for a second place. I think they know she is under my protection and leave her alone now.

It was really bad at one point I though I would have to get rid of her. Thankfully it all worked out but took time and patience to train them not to single her out and as a pack jump her. I still don't leave them all alone for long periods of time just to be safe.
Great advice
