@RadishRose .
We had a one year old black tom cat who taught our first German Shepard at 8 weeks old who the boss was. The dog thought he could be boss when he turned 1 year old & starting to bark at the cat who promptly chased the dog out of the house. When Paladin was 14 years old, he broke in the next GSD at 10 weeks old. A few years later we lost Pally.
Both of our GSD always lived in a kennel in the barn, but was allowed in once in a while & always avoided the cat.
Now when 2nd GSD was about 10 years old, we got another black cat. One day the dog came in the house & he seen the cat. He turned around & ran to the door to get out. He thought Paladin had come back

. He didn't want to come back into the house after that. That is what I call imprinting a pup.
