Dogs feel safe and comfortable knowing where they stand in their home pack. The do not like "equality". It's confusing.
Although I don't always give a food reward, I did today to show my ever present appreciation of their ever present cooperation. ❤

Squibbles must be picked for ticks two times a day. She must lay down quietly and allow me to take them all off even in sensitive areas. If she acquiesces then she gets a nice apple for her cooperation. If she jumps up or gives me a hard time she gets nothing but sent outside for the day. What a good girl Squibbles! ♥️
