   I so empathize! It is also good to throw in a few really unreasonable commands every now and then so that you can let the human “win.” That way they think they they are making progress…and they are really really good for a while.

   Um, no, I was never in doubt about who was in charge.

   Never a doubt, whatever the Queen says is right!!! We get that same question all the time too. In our case it is surprisingly usually Phantom who is in charge:)

    LOL. Or is it the humans letting you think you are in charge?

    Thanks for the smile!

    We always let them think they are in charge, but we all know better. You should see our human be in charge of us when a rabbit comes out from absolutely NOWHERE. Hee Hee…The HoundDogs

    When Riley sees a squirrel on a walk…we know who’s in charge…Riley! She’ll try to dart off after it and practically drag me down the street while I’m desperately trying to get her into heel position or even just loose leash position. She gets a little distracted…!

    We all know Queen Natasha is in charge of everything! I love those pictures of her, though, especially that bug eyed one!

    Thanks Natasha for clarifying this for all the humans out there that “think” they are in control!! You are right that re-training a human is difficult!!

    We never had any doubt, but the Herd’s induction into HULA should clarify it for anyone who has questions.

    Persistence is a very good trait in a leader. Keep up the good work, Natasha!

    Walking 2 GSD’s and a Boxer gets that question as well. And frankly, the implication is correct. I have no idea where I am going or what I am doing. I am totally fine with this because I have 1 controlling GSDs to keep the situation completely under control, 1 GSD for protection and the Boxer for entertainment. I just have to keep the leashes untangled…

    I never questioned it for a minute.

    I like to pretend I’m in charge.
