My guess is that it was something she didn't do; namely to make sure that she was top dog.

All dogs see their owners as part of their pack and they will establish a pack order if you don't. I sure that from the dogs' perspective, she was getting uppity and needed some correction. That wouldn't have happened if she had established herself as the alpha female in the pack.

So, it’s the woman’s fault, because she wasn’t “the dog whisperer.”

I read a book some years back where the author raised his family in the Canadian North with about a dozen semi-tame wolves. As long as he maintained “top wolf” status, his wife, as his mate, and their kids, as his cubs, were safe.

But he was challenged every week or two by one of the male wolves, and had to beat the tar out of it with a short club he wore on his belt at all times.

The life sounded a little too exciting to me.
