Our golden retriever does the functional equivalent sometimes when we want her to come in and she wants to stay out. She sits down and laughs at us, and when we try to catch her she plays keep-away. I make her sit and then she won't run away, and then she'll roll over on her back and I can grab her collar and she'll come in. But she's hard-headed about coming in when she's having fun.

We aren't very good at being dominant. Years of having cats has done that to us, I think. Cats are at least your equal. Thank goodness she's a golden, so she's really a sweetie, and it's not much of a problem. My kids are hard-headed and disobedient, too, but they're also good kids, so it's not much of a problem, either.

Outside dogs are hunting dogs. They don't get integrated into the home because it spoils their instincts. I have a friend who has a pack of fox hounds. They aren't pets. They live in a kennel all year round and bond together. They like people, but they follow their leader.
