I agree with Lyn.  What I notice is that at times with our litters  Tedi 
ill say, "they are getting to be too dog oriented, and we need more time  
ith the people".  Then she will make sure a puppy spends more time with  us, 
nd less with the other dogs.

e find we want our dogs, be they for show, work, or pet, to be more bonded 
to the owners, then to the other litter mates.  It has nothing to do with  
he temperament, or abilities but rather the way they react to who is the  
lpha.  Is it the person, or another dog?

This is an interesting topic what does everyone think about this.  Is it true 
that if littermates are with their siblings for to long that they react better 
with other dogs then humans.  And I am talking about kenneling them together 
for 4 months, 6 months.  Is it better to seperate them.  I had in one of  my 
litters, a majority of them who were dominant and there was a lot of posturing 
between them, which I nipped from the start.  I ended up seperating them 
because one was getting picked on and becoming not sure of itself.  Plus I 
noted that they rather interact with each other and not so much with people.  
They were fine with people but rather be with their siblings.  
Thoughts/discussion????

 find we here in America want the alpha to be the owner, not another  
itter mate. 

hat is just from 40 years of showing, reading what I can, and judging them 
now and then.

ot that there is anything wrong with that.
