Thanks for the welcoming words everyone. Yorkie4me, thanks for the advice. I do greet Bitsy first when I come home as she (QueenBee) has the run of the house, so she always sees me first. The other two share the kitchen for now while AprilLove is pottytraining. I will let them figure it out and hope it goes well. There has been progress, tonight Bitsy let April lay on my lap at the same time, but Bitsy was up on my stomach and April on my legs

so maybe that helps the doggy heiarchy?
