Scoring
Give yourself a point for each time you answered "My dog" or "Yes". 



     0 - 3: You are leader of the pack, and your dog knows it.



     4 - 7: There might be some confusion over who's the boss,
            but it's nothing you can't clear up by remembering how your dog thinks and dusting 
            off some obedience routines.


    

     8 - 10:You might just as well hand the keys to your dog, roll over
            and see if it'll scratch your belly. Or, alternatively, invest in some serious
            training classes for your pushy dog.
