#1 How Does Pack Order Work?

It is probably that you have heard about dogs history. We all know that dogs descended from wolves and that wolves live in packs. In wild life being in a pack is very important. Moreover, pack order is still important for domestic dogs who retain many wolf qualities.

It is said by Cesar’s Way that the pack is led by an alpha male and female, followed then by betas and omegas.

The function of those is very simple. Betas serve the alphas, and the omegas at the end of the barrel serve someone else.

Living with domesticated dogs, the human is part of the pack, holding a dominant role.
