Question
hello, thanks for taking my question. I have 2 female poms whom Ive had for several years. I brought home a 1/2 maltese 1/2 poodle male about a year ago. he is so sweet and a really good dog except he wants to be first in line for everything and he jumps on top of the poms as if to say I am dominent over you and he gets pretty rough with them some times. what changes could I make to keep him from being so dominent?                             thank you, laura

Answer
Well,if he's not fixed getting him done will help A LOT

And the next thing that will help both of you will be to take him to obedience classes-talk to a few dog trainers and pick the one that you like the best

Obedience schools are the best way to put yourself in the alpha position-and your dog will learn how to respect you and the other dogs
