How does a dominant Lab act
When a dominant Lab approaches an unfamiliar individual (in other words, one whose dominance or subordinance is not known), she walks stiffly with her head and tail up. Her stare is direct and she may snarl or growl as she approaches. If the other individual is a dog, the two may momentarily stand their ground at right angles to one another as they size each other up. At this point, one dog must immediately back down and acknowledge the other's dominance by an appropriate display. If this doesn't happen, the dogs will fight to establish dominance.
