My twin boxer mixes; I have one that is so dominant and a bully to her sister and resonating on all my stuff from blankets to my clothing, then she playwright up underneath me.i don't hit them cause it appears they were always in a crate and they scared of almost everything. They both get startled easily. What can I do to make them comfortable and at ease.

Consider obedience training ( https://www.petco.com/shop/en/petcostore/s/petco-dog-training ) to redirect some of that energy. A pheromone product, such as the Adaptil collar or DAP plug in diffuser, may also help to decrease any anxiety. Provide extra toys, bowls and beds to prevent resource protection.
