2 of my three are like this. The Pyrenees not so much. She does what she wants. She is also the one to lead the bad guy into the house for snacks and cuddles. Unfortunately for the bad guy the other two will eat them. It’s a balance. Maybe she is just leading them in to become snacks? But only after she gets her pets. UNLESS another dog is messing with the other two dogs (ie at the dog park then she charges!)Exactly! Don't get it twisted though..all my dogs have always been sweet and very gentle with kids and such. But..they understand who the leader of the pack is. No leashes needed when a simple "hey" will suffice. Meanwhile it's funny to watch people's dogs never listen to them with their super gentle approach. But alas....to each their own. A good dog is better than most people to have around.
