When she finally leaves his alone reward her with her own treat. If she is being mean to him same thing correct her..don't run and cuddle her that just reinforces bad behavior. Good luck..
I agree you are the pack leader so you are ultimatly in charge BUT dogs do follow a pecking order.That was how they were in the wild.
Some dogs get along equally and there doesn't seem to be an order but others don't.
In her eyes she is not doing anything wrong.They don't see that toy as Coopers favourite it is just a toy.
I find I can't leave toys around,they all get put away after playtime which is good as it again shows that you are the pack leader.
Be careful when taking toys away from her as if Cooper is near she may growl and go for you by mistake,always offer something in place of the toy that you are taking away.
