New alpha

Tomorrow, I will be 16 months old. A lot has happened in the past week. I'll not get into details, but the alpha position in the park was transferred to me relatively peaceably. Also, Mom is keeping me on a leash most of the time now. She said my pack mentality and my dislike for all unneutered dogs including puppies forces her to take away my leash-free time. I also hurt a little male pug a few days ago. We'd been friends for months, and had a lot of great games together, but he was still intact at almost 1 year old so I started having mixed feelings about him. I guess I upset him playing too rough, and he told me off. I took the abuse as always, but the other pack members tried to stop him. Well, I couldn't just stand there, I had to show everyone who's boss. I grabbed him and roughed him up, but Mom jumped on my back and I could tell she was mad. I let the pug go, and the other pack members tried to carry on the attack. I tried to get back into the fight, but Mom had me down on the ground. So now there's only a few dogs she'll let me play with, bigger dogs like labs and german shepherds and of course my sister who I would never dream of hurting. I will miss my little friends.
