What kind of wolf package leader do you want to be?

The next time someone advises you to train your dog based on “Wolf Pack Behavior”, ask them about the type of wolf package that is already in her mind.

Are they talking about an artificial or real and natural package?

Because discrimination is the key.

Artificial wolf package It is a group of unrelated wolves that were forced together on families, as in the zoo. These wolves had no choice in their environment or their choice from the Companions.

Wolves in an artificial package fights daily to create a social system and must compete constantly for resources and hegemony. They take any necessary steps to survive in this abnormal situation. Relationships within this type of package can be tense and fierce, full of conflict, intimidation, and aggression.

In contrast to that, Natural wolf package In the wilderness it generally has peaceful relationships. This type of packaging consists of an adult male and an adult female who lives in the wilderness who chose each other as a designer of life and work together to raise any young men who may have.

The natural and wolf package is a family. Over the seasons and years, the wolf fathers shared their descendants. Adults have flexible liquid roles as required. Sometimes, the father will go out as the mother remains near to protect her young. At other times, the mother leaves hunting while the father remains at home. In this type of packaging, there is no dominant “alpha” – only family leaders who collaborate together.

At risk, members of the natural wolf package work together to protect against threats. Members of the support and cooperation package with each other. Internal conflicts are resolved diplomatically and without violence. This is logical for survival, because any wild infection carries a great risk of infection, the inability to chase or eat, starve, and possibly death on the package.

In general, members of the wild wolf wolf package have calm and stable relationships. Young wolves refer to their parents before they eventually set out on their own to find their colleague and start their package.

At any time you tend to treat your dog like a “package member”, ask yourself:

• Do you choose a life of tension, instability and constant conflict? Do you prefer to control those around you through intimidation? Do you prefer the struggle, and you expect others to fight, in a control race and become “alpha?” Do you give priority to your survival and well -being without any thinking pressure Or the injury that other packages suffer from? Then the artificial wolf package is a role model for you.
• Do you choose a life of the calm local calm? Do you like to live in peace with respect and care for each other? Can you be confident, confident and preventive that enables everyone to be well -known? Can you impose family bases in a nice and productive way? Do you enjoy confidence, cooperationAnd cooperation? Are you ready to help every member of the package flourish? Then the natural and wolf package is a role model.

Some people are surprised when they learned that the natural and land wolf package is a coherent and cooperative family group that practices diplomacy and supports all its members.

But it is logical. The wild wolf package has the best opportunity to survive if its members work, not against each other. We can follow their example with dogs in our family. Creating a climate of calm contact can improve everyone’s welfare.
