Resource guarding is not dominace it is keeping an item that one has for ones self. Even a puppy with a bone and grr at another older dog and say it is mine.
Just like if my sister walks up and yet agains trys to snag my ice cap I am going to grr at her.
Also dogs in the wild do not pack and well somes pack is not a normal setting for a dog. Just like some humans are happy alone so are some dogs.

Apparently you missed the sries on the Wolfman, where the mqan lived with a PACK yup I said PACK of wolves. he lived with them slept with them hunted with them and ate with them and HE was the PACK leader. As LEADER he could come and go, only the leader can do that. Other members must stay with the pack.
When i remove one of my dogs from the PACK, for a trip to the vet etc. and then I return it, they all get on it as if to say, where have you been.
Years ago, I had a very smart little dog that would nip at me when ever I was gone and came back. Cesar and his theory were not around at that time, so I did not realize that this little dog was the leader, and I was not. This little dog also tried to be the leader of a litter of kittens and of a new born colt.
Oh I thought I was the leader cause I would tell her to sit, and she would sit and i would giver her a treat, I would tell her to lie down and she would obey and i would give her a treat. She obeyed all the commands and did all the tricks, but she did them for the treats.
Now I know that I am the leader of my PACK because Cesar taught me how to be, and my PACK responds just as he predicts that they should. I tell them to wait at the door and they sit in a row and wait until I say OK, and they get no treats, they just get me.
That is proof enough to me that his theory works.
