[Dailydrool] the least expected result

[Dale Rutz]

Hi all, it's the clueless momPerson here,

First off let me say drool to all in need and thank Dog Maggie Wags is coming 
home!!

I wanted to share a little story.  As most folks know, my three dogs get along 
famously.  Except, of course, that Snoopy thinks he is alpha, while Cyrus 
actually IS alpha.  Fortunately, neither dog bites.  Unfortunately, Snoopy spent 
some time on the streets before animal control found him.  We suspect he spent 
his time on the "east side" and oh brother can that boy talk trash!!  LuLu is 
SHOCKED beyond words at his use of fowl language.  So, that is generally the 
extent of it .... Cyrus will go through a door before Snoopy, or get closer to a 
person who is eating, and Snoopy will ahrooo real loud and then if Cyrus doesn't 
back off Snoopy gets NASTY.  Doesn't bite, but he yells and screams and spits 
and gets in Cyrus face.  He did it yesterday and Cyrus was irritated so he head 
butted him and Snoopy was MAD all afternoon.  About the worst it gets is when I 
have to force Snoopy out into the man cave for some time to "collect his 
thoughts" ... usually 2 minutes is good.

So, after dinner I thought I'd walk the dogs and maybe that would smooth the 
tension between my two boys.  Well, I went into the bathroom first and closed 
the door and all H&#L broke loose on the other side of the door.  I wasn't 
terribly worried because like I said, neither dog bites.  I figured someone in 
the family would grab Snoopy and give him a time out.  Well, they yelling went 
on a bit and then stopped so I figured Greg or one of the girls handled it.  
Well, imagine my surprise when I opened the door and found LuLu standing in 
between my boys giving them both the worst case of stink eye I have ever seen 
from my little girl.

Evidently she'd had enough.  She doesn't bite either .... but she'd had it and 
she let them know to KNOCK it off!!!  Never said a word, but they both did what 
she said.

Amazing.  Cyrus is 110 lbs.  Snoopy is 72.  And my precious little LuLu is just 
over 50 lbs now (up 8 lbs from 6 weeks ago).  And apparently she's the boss.
