Thanks for the advice. I guess it's sort of like when my son starts crying over something lame, I normally acknowledge that he's upset, but I don't cater to it. I didn't think to do the same with Roxy.

It's wierd, because in some ways Roxy is a brave dog. She is my guard dog, she is the boss of Dusty, she isn't all that timid towards strangers, and she loves kids. But for some reason, she's wierd towards me. I've never laid hands on her or yelled at her. I guess she recognizes me as alpha and respects me a little to much?
