The dominance theory was based on wolves from a study that was flawed..even if you don't want to study about that information which comes from people with PHD's dogs were domesticated over 316,000 years ago...just how long do you think these traits are going to last in a dog...what about humans from 316,000 years...don't you think we have all evolved...please do your dogs a favor and pick up some books on positive training and also read about the flawed thinking based on a group of wolves.
This was man 316,000 years ago..so I would guess there have been some changes made and new ways of thinking. |
What i find interesting is that you are so adament that dogs have evolved away from their primal instincts of dominance, but yet insist that the primal instinct to hump things is still there.
I believe that they still have all of their primal instincts but that they can be controlled by the pack leader.
