• In my pack it was always the second in place who started a fight.When the leader met another dog and that dog acted agression the second in place attacked the dog.Leader didnt start. A few weeks ago adog came around the corner and my gsd started growling and barking and suddenly attacked my co.I always said to my sonn never ever let him go always no matter what hold on and thank god he did because otherwise my gsd would be dead. My question is is it always the beta dogs who redirect their agression?My second in pack had the biggest mouth and shows much agression but the silent dog is defendly in charge. So does redirection agression belong to the beta dogs?
