You know, it's funny I should find a topic on this very subject! My two girls have definitely established a hierarchy. Aqua is my queen, and she's of a very serious stature. Eelee, my goofball, is much more lighthearted. But despite Eelee's easygoing attitude, Aqua somehow seems to need to find any excuse to establish her dominance. I brought home my Great Pyr pup today, and instead of him chasing her, her hair rose up on her back and she went after HIM! Isn't it supposed to be the other way around? Maybe I should sic HER on the coyotes!!

Despite this aggressive behavior, Aqua doesn't like to be away from Eelee for more than a few minutes, and always snuggles up close to her at night.

Goats...go figure!
