    A friend of mine on Facebook just posted something about her dog eating something mad that he shouldn't have eaten, he is fine but someone posted that the dog had probably eaten it because he thinks it's human food and that means he thinks he's higher up the pack than he actually is.....I don't know the guy but I had to politely comment that it was a load of old nonsense.....just had to share...

    That's ok as long as you make them see you eat it first showing you're the boss who gets the choice cuts though to be on the safe side you can roll them over a few times and hold them down to really show them how Alpha you are.*


    *For anyone not aware this is said in jest; never, ever, try to do a so called alpha roll on your dog

    How did the facebook conversation go after that Tracey? I've been "re-educating" my boss and colleagues in work re dog training theory etc recently too. Spreading the word!

    One of my dogs keeps jumping on the bed and crawling into my arms during the night, not only is he trying to become the pack leader I think he's trying to become my boyfriend too.

    What do I do?!

    If you put a husky on his back and hold him down, is that an Arctic roll? :pac:

    Don't waste one more moment you both... you need to urinate on your dogs immediately.
    That'll show them!

    No reference to it, he didn't comment again, she hasn't commented again, a few comedy comments about what the dog ate, that seems to be it....I think some people just aren't that interested :(

    I generally let people tell me how much they love dogs and love CM etc. I nod and make non committal comments and when they are finished waxing about their love of animals I tend to go - "but you know that whole CM thing is bollix and there's no such thing as alpha theory, right?"

    I don't think that'll work - they've already achieved their goal of taking my bed! Note that they've left me no leg room and expect me to slot in across the top! :p

    What you need to do is get a third dog. That'll sort out your problem of them leaving even a corner of the bed for you :p
