| Dominance? I have a pair of Yorkie's named Jewel and Bella. Jewel is clearly the alpha, Bella isn't. I have noticed Jewel on top of Bella is a Dominate fashion. Do I allow it? As it stands, Jewel trys to possess me, but I make her accept Bella around mommy by forcing her to be calm or I push her away. Works great. Am I don't this correctly? My goal is to make sure they always love each other. They are my whole world. |

| IMO I would let the pack be. The dominant won't hurt the other pack members, but will establish dominance. If one isn't hurting the other then let them be. My Yorkie knows I'm his dominant, but when we go to grandmas there is a whole different pecking order, took a few visits, and a nip on the tail or two but he learned he's at the bottom of that pack chain. (4 shi zhu adults and a cat) The non Dom will yelp if hurt, that's when I step in.
