I am the Leader of the Pack in my dog house. I have never withheld affection but lavish it on them. I have never punished except to hollar yesterday when my pregnant bitch attacked one of my nine week old babies. I had only put them down for a "trial run" in the big dog room and I was there with them. She has never been aggressive in any way but being pregnant her hormones are running wild. I have found that an abundance of praise and loving goes a long way on establishing that YOU are the leader of the pack. |
