Well said - the dominat ones can be wonderful - I have 2 dominant
bitches, mother and daughter - Mother has her CD and is a very well
behaved lady, the other is very laid back but dominant. Mom is the alpha
of the dogs and daughter is the beta over her older sister. They have
worked out the pecking order well and there is little bickering.
