[Diane Heller-Vaccaro]

Well I'm going to guess she ruled her last home and easily made herself right at home. Another sign that this dog probably isn't fearful. That is why with the little supplied I "upgraded" her status from fear to dominance. The problem is how are you going to get her off the couch right? I would also crate this dog, she would learn where her place in the house begins and ends. It as nothing to do with a dog that is housebroken, I use the crate to establish that this is your place. Also a bed by the couch so again she learns this is your place and this is my place. I would not try to physically force this dog to do anything because you would probably get a big correction from her.
