Best Answer

To correct over dominance in a dog, you have to show the dog that you are the "alpha" in the relationship. To do this you have to be stern with your dog when it does something that is not OK with you. Say no with a firm voice and be consistent with how you discipline and what you discipline. Also, teaching your dog basic obedience lessons for fifteen minutes each day will help with this issue.
