Molly is a bully
I have had a shift in the dynamics of my little pack.Macy is 5 and has always been the leader.Molly is 2 and has always been the follower.Recently Molly has been bullying Macy.If Macy is laying in a bed, Molly will stand at the bed and bark until Macy gets up and moves to another spot.Molly will immediately lay down in the bed and act like she is so proud of herself.I still feed Macy first and greet Macy first and act like she is the dominate one but I have noticed Macy and Molly seem to be fighting over things they never did before like toys and my attention.
My question is..does it sound like Molly is becoming the dominate one and Macy is going along with that?Do I let it happen or correct Molly?
