Years ago, I read just about every dog book available. I know, from experience that it works with German Shepards, which can be very aggressive and protective, at first, about their food.

You must have owned, some very overweight, and unhealthy dogs.
If an owner cannot remove a bowl of food, bone, or any toy without the dog showing aggression, the animal is not trained properly.
We have never owned a dog that was ever under the illusion it was in charge.
Happy dogs are trained, and know their place in the pack, and it sure isn't the top.
