Dog thought he was protecting an alpha, a role he'd take up one day if needed. Now he's just stuck with some pissy omega and won't ever be happy again (Unless he decides to flip the rank).
> Does your dog not respond quicker and more attentively to you versus your wife?
You know, I never actually thought about this but that does seem to be the case despite my wife feeding my dogs 90% of the time. They LIKE her more for sure, follow her around the house more and prefer to cuddle with her - but when I give a command it's often as if god parted the clouds and shouted it down at them himself.
