    Oh dear. The balance of power seems to have changed. Puppy Nero tried stealing Miley's food a couple of times but learnt better when she nipped him. Today, he stole it & she stood back. I think he's the boss now. He is younger, stronger and already a little taller. Poor Miley.

        And Erebus, the boa constrictor is already over 5 feet long even tho he is only 18 months old and won't reach his full length until 4. I really must check that he isn't actually a girl. :-/

        You are anthropomorphising. Dogs are quite happy to be down the ladder, they need hierarchy.

        I know they do! I'm talking about the fact that their places on the hierarchy have switched. That doesn't make sense in relation to humans.

        Just pointing out that you may dry your tears, the puppy won’t mind being subordinate.

        Dogs have no glass ceiling when it comes to being a ‘top dog’, it’s just about temperament. My male GSD is bigger, stronger, active and a bit younger compared to my female GSD but she is more intelligent, considerate and most definitely the boss.

        Apparently 'pet parenting' isn't much of a thing at your house?! 😉 I will send asap an adress to the 'shelter for underappreciated pet elders' for Miley. Make sure she gets it!

        If Nero's popularity ratings go down as a result of his greed, tell him to blame the Christians. That'll work.
