Multiple Sheepie owners - Who calls the shots?
In our case, Lennon calls the shots. Until Sofa says so. Lennon is the house guardian, designated barker, first time toy chewer, etc. But One Hight Pitched Bark from Queen Sofa and Lennon will quietly move away from the water fountain and drop whatever he was chewing at the time for her majesty to enjoy... it's pretty hilarious. (Not that it reflects any household tendencies... Me ALWAYS House King!!) Anyway, I'd like to know if in other houses things are the same (With the dogs of course, we all know guys are kings of the castle... right?  ) |

We don't have two on a regular basis, but my parents just visited with their boy. Our Izzie was definitely in charge While that may have been partly because it was her house....I think when we visit at Christmas she will still rule....at his house  |

)Now if that were true, you wouldn't be asking this question. 
In my household the girls outnumbered the boys, but when the boys spoke, they listened, that is, if they wanted to. Mostly, my guys would let the girls rule the roost, but if they wanted something bad enough, they stood their ground, and the girls would surrender to their will.

| Girls seem to be more bossy with attitude. I know mine is always mom and has to police things when they get rowdy. |
| Hannah's in charge but it could be because she's older and she was here first too. |
 WOW... This is enlightening. Seems that in sheepie homes, the girls have the upper hand! |
They always do saul even female uprights too  |
| At our zoo, it seems the newest fur person (Molly) has ruled the roost until the others caught on that the newbie hasn't learned how to socialize yet. Then THE QUEEN (all capital letters, naturally) re-assumed her [rightful] ruling duties and now bosses everybody else around (2-leggers as well) just like before.
We made a crown and septor for SAMANTHA (all caps, natch!) but since it was created from a kielbassa and a cheese-flavored hotdog, she ate it without regard nor consideration for those 'crown jewels'. After a large (and not very pleasant and most un-queenly) dog belch, SAMANTHA continues to rule her empire from our (queen-size) bed. As has been said, the female of the species can (and does) rule... ...which is the way it should be. You go Girls! |
| The boys think they do, but they sure do back down when the girls grumble. When we had Sam and Paige, Sam would bite the dogs he was trying to boss, but when Paige was near or they were running the fence together, Sam backed down. In play she was always "on top".
Now that they are gone it is Glacier and Simone. They are equal rulers, never crossing one another but gladly telling the boys to back off. Of course it's the boys who are the noisey ones........very noisey but they don't challenge the girls. |
I had to go with the boys in my house, well sheepie wise anyway. I have Puddy, Titus and the foster Ernie so that was an easy one. But everyone knows that Mom is the boss, even the hubby.  Well, that is as long as he doesn't read this post. |
| That's an easy one...QUEEN ANNIE!!!
Saul. I love your poll options! |
