IDK, doesn't knowing the 'why' sometimes help in which way to go with the training? One of mine is a bit of an aggressive walker, and I've narrowed it down to being fear-based, which really changed the way I handle her. At first I assumed she was being alpha, so I stepped up my alpha but things got worse. When I realized her fear, I changed to being overly calm and understanding, which helps to settle her. |
What do you mean by "stepped up your alpha?" The way I see alpha is "overly calm and understanding." Like a rock.
