Bruce... Thanks, to a point it doesn't mean anything, however, I like to know where some of the insight is coming from. I know I need to earn her trust. The part that concerns me is having 2 kids at home as well. How long should I give her to learn that she is not the dominate character? The only thing that I expect is a mutual respect. I will give her space and I expect that she respect me and not growl when I grab the leash to get her off my furniture.

Ilovemypuppy - Why do I need another dog??? For company in the house... There is no other dog at the current time. I know that they do not need another dog around. I have dogs now for 27+ years. Seldom more then 1 at a time. I didn't SNAP... I clarified what I had already said. I am more than happy to listen to those with experience and knowledge, however I don't like those to insinuate that I don't know what I am doing with a dog. I am asking advise wether it be more time or training or whatever, because none of my previous dogs have had an issue with who was ALPHA.

I do appreciate ALL of the comments and suggestions because maybe someone can point out something I haven't seen. It is fustrating however, when you are trying to explain the whole situation and can't.
