FS1.6 It's Good To Know I Am Still The Alpha Of My Household

As a few of you know, I took a trip home this weekend and just returned yesterday afternoon. Upon walking back into the house I was expecting it to be in a shambles but to my surprise there was actually some major improvements made. No carnage, no wreckage, no Harold and his purple crayon murals on the walls. I do say I am most impressed. There was only one slight snag in the fabric of this home sweet home story... The dog Apparently my 38 pound little bundle of fur was too much for my 6 foot, military trained to kick your ass husband. Granted Ginger who is a mix of 3/4 German Shepherd and 1/4 we have no clue can be quite the stubborn little canine. She and I have on more than one occasion had the discussion over who is the head bitch of our household. I was shocked to hear that she was jumping on the couch and growling at my husband while I was gone. In fact her behavior was so bad that my husband was about to make a 911 call to the Dog Whisper instead she became an outside dog until I returned. Naturally, once I was settled in I had to see this so called "hell hound" behavior. So I opened the back door and she did her lap of joy around the downstairs then sat perfectly at my feet waiting for me to pet her. I bent down and gave her a pet and a scratch behind the ears and she quietly went into the next room and laid down. To this my husband just shakes his head and I say " it's good to know I am still the alpha of my household."---CK
