Poopie peek-a-boo

Behavioral Issues
  • :D :D
    EL D does the whirling twirling poop dance. Sometimes he can get twirling so fast he loses his balance. Funny thing though he never does it on our walks if the neighborhood kids are out - maybe he's too modest around them.
    :D :D

  • My basenji will do the same thing only she will spin in circles untill she finds the right spot. My husband and I laugh because he says that it is like she is trying to "fling" the poo out. :) lol

  • lol "If you have poo, fling it now!" Thats one of my FAVORITE lines from the movie Madagascar!

    Both Tayda and Lenny have to cover about a 5 foot radius when they are pooping. Its ridiculous to see when they happen to be simultaneously going. They are like two figure skaters dancing around each other with this weird waddle.

    Sometimes Lenny will see something up a tree and decide to abandon his pooping mission and go running around the tree jumping up and down. But WHILE he's jumping up and down on the tree trunk, he'll still have poop falling from his behind! Seriously, its so ridiculous sometimes…

  • I also find it that my boy is sort of embarresed when he poops because as soon as he's done he jumps as far as possible and kind of looks around like.."who did that?"..lol

  • Yay, I thought my dog was just mental. She spins, she plays poopie peek-a-boo for what seems like hours. It takes her an age to pick the spot she wants to go in, and I literally pray that nothing interesting happens when she finally does decide to go. I have never seen an animal with so much control over her pooper.

    The first time she did hat to my husband he was convinced something was seriously wrong with her.

  • It's like the bumble bee dance!

    The peek a Poo (also a dog breed?)- immortalized by National Lampoon's vacation -Prairie Dogging it

    I dog sometimes get so scared that poop shoots out her bottom like squeezing a tube of tooth paste (nail trimming). The vet loves that!

    Once my dog pooped in my niehbor's yard and I had no bags, so I left it to pick up on our next walk.

    On our next walk, The dog found it sniffed it and when I cleaned it up she gave me this really confused look right in my eyes like- "Your not picking up other dog's poop, it's not mine ?"

  • I wonder what mythology the dogs have to explain why we pick up their poop.
    maybe when they revolt and take over the world one cited reason will be never leaving poop around long enough to be investegated and tasted by all the dogs in the neighborhood.

  • Myran does the poop dance heck of job to find all the poopie wieners especially in the dark.He stretches when he wee´s and immediately after does a quick willie wash I never seen him forget the wash talk about a fastidious dog.He´s only lifted his leg twice and that was after encountering a lady in heat ;)

  • SAME HERE! At first I thought Sally was consitpated. hehehehe….nope she is just picky also! Except when she is nervous then she can go fast and any where! YUCK

  • That is sooo funny, my husband will jump up from what ever he is doing and say sorry hun I have to go, I am Prairie Dogging it!! I thought that he was the only one to say that. :)

    I was a little pre-occupied earlier today, and Doodle displayed her displeasure at my constant delays... how? She got up on the sofa and did this little prancing-dancing thing. Like she was saying, "haha, look at me misbehaving". LOL oh yeah.... if that is her "breaking bad", I'm in trouble, she's got my heart!

    @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! :)

    Neutering is not going to help - training is. But a good trainer will train YOU to deal with the dog. If a trainer can get him to behave but you can't - there is little to be gained from paying out money. This is something you should never have allowed to happen, but since it has, I think you should deal with it and @JENGOSMonkey has given you a good idea to start you off. Withdrawing treats is a good idea, but also, get up and walk away. He could be biting to get attention and therefore you withdraw the attention at the first sign of a bite, with a firm NO.

    @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.
