Default Forcing dominance???

Big question.....
Why on earth do you think that it is better for her to act, from what you
said yourself, TOTALLY contrary to her actual personality?

If the other dogs seem to like her, accept her as she is, why change it? Its
like asking a cheerful person to act depressed all the time, or a natural
peacemaker to start a fight.

After all, it wouldn't be out of the norm for your other dogs to decide that
she is their little buddy and be protective of her, taking care of her and
the like, since she is not as pushy as they are.

um... you might want to post your responses to the thread you're responding
to. because i certainly have no idea what you're talking about otherwise,
and i doubt anyone else does either.

just a suggestion.

I couldn't find the orig. post, figured it was lost (my email is set to
unread only) and the posts I did see on it....had you-know-who responding,
so I didn't want to reply to one of those...so I made a new one....of
course, now I guess that you-know-who cross posted it.
It was from someone who wanted advice on how to make his new female dog
dominate his other dogs, because she was too laid back.
