The Heeler very much understands that he falls below people in the pack. He used to be top dog but stopped even trying months ago. The GSD accepts me as leader for the most part. He'll do what I say and such but its like short term memory. I think he views my husband as an equal. I'll give last night as an example so you can see why I'm so confused. My mother works nights and came in just before midnight. Husband was on the couch and I was in bed asleep. She walked in and the GSD immediately jumped on the Heeler. Another time, I walked in and the GSD ran to the hall and jumped on the Heeler. I don't think PetSmart training is going to help here. What do you recommend as far as training?
