I do practise alpha training. She responds hiding under the counter, her safe place. She was very hard to train but lately after her last heat is much calmer and obedient, she isn't a model of behavior, but responds to orders practically always. Loves to play and has 3 real close buddies, who when they approach, she runs to them and then , yes, she doesn't obey. Shealso has 2 other dogs who she doesn't like even tho' they never had anything, I must add that she is spoiled, we live just the 2 of us, sleeps with me in the room, never climbs on the bed tho' and I find it hard when I get home in the few times I leave her alone to not greet her inmediately at arrival when she wags her tail desperately and jumps excitedly around me not on me. and only do it after a few seconds when she calms down, a little. She loves to play with me, but only gives me the ball when I throw a second ball, She definitely does what she wants and all that saves her is her positive disposition towards other humans or dogs. When you ask about Alpha, I did think that she was protecting me, but its only with other dogs, and I generally don't react to them when she is around. Thanks for the help.
