I'm calm and relaxed because I've put the precautions in place that a fight shouldn't occur.
Just since yesterday with the new rules, the puppy seems to be staying to the rear of the pack, sort of moping but not pushing to get to the front which is how the fight usually starts. The pack was very orderly today.
I can't say enough about how thankful I am that you responded to my post. If you were in front of me you would receive a huge hug! This is what YT is all about, experienced pack leaders helping those of us who are still grasping the concept of pack leadership. See you around YT and God Bless You! |
My brother says I have lost my mind over these little dogs, but he understands me and my need to nurture these babies......he even understands me treating and talking to them all like they a little humans! I am thrilled I could help you and make you feel better....you have a problem thaat is easily controlled....it just necessitates changes in your "structure" around the kiddos! Just remember, that little senior will be gone .....they dont live forever, and she is the one deserving of special treatment at this stage of the game!! Remember the "love notes!!" She will thrive with the love and attention you share with her above the others....make her feel like she is indeed "The Matriarch" and will NOT be religated to the bottom of the pecking order, and left to fight her own battles!
