Top 10 Signs Your Dog Thinks They’re in Charge Publisher's Summary

Dogs are wonderful companions. They greet us with wagging tails after a long day, snuggle close when we’re feeling down, and fill our homes with love, laughter, and often a bit of mischief. Their loyalty is unwavering, their joy infectious, and their affection unconditional. This is why, for millions of households around the world, dogs are more than pets—they're family.

We feed them, care for them, walk them, and even talk to them as if they fully understand us (and sometimes, we’re convinced they do). This deep bond we share is built on trust, routine, and mutual affection. But in some households, that love, while well-intentioned, may blur an important line: who's in charge?

You might laugh at the idea that your dog thinks they run the show, but this isn’t just about spoiled pups or funny quirks. It’s about behavior. Subtle actions (or inactions) that suggest your dog may believe they’re higher up in the household hierarchy than they should be. This doesn’t mean your dog is a “bad dog” or that you’ve failed as a pet parent. Far from it. Most of the time, these dynamics develop gradually, often out of love, routine, and a few “cute” behaviors that go unchecked.

Dogs are incredibly perceptive and smart. They thrive on structure and respond to leadership—especially the calm, confident kind. When clear boundaries are missing or inconsistent, some dogs will naturally fill in the blanks themselves. They start making decisions. They guard resources. They dictate the pace and rules of play. They ignore commands not because they don’t understand, but because they don’t see the need to obey.
