More talking

Behavioral Issues
  • Deke is almost 5 he has always been a bit of a talker. We added the two BRAT girls (Gracie 6 and Britty 8) on Saturday 11/10. All seem to be adjusting well. We have the typical snarking and are working out who is alpha.

    Last evening Deke started talkin even more! He Baroos more and does that bark-like noise. He just in general talks more! Do you guys thnk he's doing for our attention(which he gets a lot) or is he talking to them. Sometimes it is direct toward us and some toward them. Some times it seems random.

    It's not a problem we think it's cute. Just putting it out there.

    @Saving so nice to hear there's other people with the same problem! We have been giving regular baths to our b, so I don't know if that really helped or not. Anyways, it took a while for me to bring Nova again to the dog park, because I was a bit afraid the same situation would happen again. I was there a couple of days ago, and no one tried to hump her. (I must say all dogs had same age approx.) Thank you for your comment replies! :)

    @sarahmiri - I would say no to carrying him.... don't pick him up, but get down to his level as Zande pointed out in her response.

    Just thought I'd share an update on this. I removed the blankets from the crate and replaced them with a mattress. We have been strict about her only staying in the crate at night. When we have had accidents I have cleaned up, with a dog urine killing spray, and placed her back in the crate. Everything is progressing smoothly, not had any accidents for over a week now. So it's been a rather quick turnaround, lovely to have her properly crate trained again. Thank you all for sharing advice on the situation.

    oh yes and last night I was actually furless on the bed. Of course had to push Belle off the bed about 10times but at least she got the message before 12.00am and went to her bed. But at 6 they came up…Hey baby steps...
