🐕‍🦺Tips on How to Become Alpha Leader Over Your Dogs.

Having a Dog in your life is not easy but the joy they bring into our lives is beyond description. Indeed, being a dog owner is not just solely calling you a “Furparent” but showing your dominance to your dog is extremely essential so they won’t control your relationship in the latter part. Dogs need a dominant, alpha leader; a being who is calm and very strong-minded. That is a dog’s natural behavior when they were living in the wilderness. They instinctually crave this leadership and guidance when they became domesticated and pet.

 

Since they do not live in pack; dogs’ lives evolve between them and humans (also known as hoomans). And so, unstable humans make unstable dogs. Size means nothing, it is all about your energy, firmness, and it is how the hooman’s feeling inside that dogs are mirroring. A hooman who lacks confidence will not have a dog who listens to their commands. 

Dog Lovers are normally emotionally unstable when dealing with a dog’s behavior. Have you seen your dogs’ eyes – the way they look at you every time you put your foods in your mouth? Undeniably, you can’t stop sharing your foods with them and it became a habit and you just noticed them jumping on you during dinner. Seems a bad behavior isn’t it? But have you asked – what drives them of becoming “One”? Well, it is simply you forgot that you’re the ALPHA; you followed your emotion which makes you weak.

In this video, I will share with you how my American Bully became submissive every time I corrected his bad behavior.

Just to share, Escobar is scared of his poops because when he accidentally stepped on it, I showed him how angry I was and I even punished him. Nowadays, he makes sure that he won’t step on it and if he does, you will see him trembling in one corner assuming to be punished. 

Honestly, there is no definite way to explain how you reach this alpha position. Being dominant over your dog does not mean you should be hurting your dog. It means you must communicate to the dog who the leader is going to be. Pack leaders are not aggressive, angry, or bossy which we should not embody as hooman. We’re not dominant-aggressive, we are calm-assertive.
