When a new puppy, rescue or older dog enters your home, you, your family, including your children and other animals such as cats and other dogs, become part of his/her pack. Your dog instantly looks for leadership and for his/her place in the pecking order.

You naturally lead with human mentality and not pack mentality which can inadvertently give the 'Top Dog' position to your dog. This is when problems can start. Depending on your dog's personality (not breed) will govern whether he/she will literally take over the household or become nervous and insecure. It is not that you have done anything wrong, you simply are not a pack animal and innocently miss what your dog is looking for.

Your dog does not want fairness and equality like most humans, they want to know where they are in the pecking order and have a strong leader who is calm, confident and decisive with self-assured body language.
