The prey takes control?

Hi Kevin,

I got this (with permission) from another forum I help out on and thought these sequences of pictures fit in with the predator / prey aspect of things you talk about, looking at the pics it seems the bigger dog is in predator mode with the smaller dog entering the kennel, but afterwards this seems to switch when looking at the pics as the smaller dog seems to take control....ie with the mouth near the high neck area of the bigger dog and in the last pic the smaller dog has his paw on the bigger dogs paw which indicates control......

Soul saying catch me if you can

I'll just hide under here.

Another example I thought of.......

We used to have a chinchilla years ago in a cage on the sideboard, it was a challenge to stop our dog at the time to charge the cage, being a terrier a rodent such as this is his natural prey, one night we accidental left the cage door open, when we came downstairs we found the chinchilla at the edge of the sideboard looking down at our dog who was cowering in the corner and would not dare move!!....they prey controlling the predator.....

Excellent photos that say more then tens of thousands of words. The small dog is characterized by preyful features, rounded body shape, small, big eyes, domed head, etc. So this "dilates" the body/mind of the wolf and then it can't bear to look directly at its eyes (which are the predatory aspect) so that when the little dog expresses its predatory aspect it can easily take control. Thanks,
