As most of you know, it's been craziness at my house the last weekā¦ and I haven't spent as much time w/Wally as I normally do. In the past week, Wally has lunged at 3 of usā¦ every time it's been later at night (after 6pm) and he's been asleep either on the chair or couch. He starts a warning growl, and then lunges outā¦ he did it first to Lily, then to me 2 nights ago and last night he lunged at Ray. He hasn't bit any of us, just a lunge then he realizes what's happened and he jumps down. I took him to the vet this morning, because I saw Marcus lean on his back hips the other day so I was thinking that maybe he had hurt him or something. She did a thorough check on him and he appears fineā¦ no crying or whimperingā¦ she told me to give him some Metacam for the next 10 days just in case he pulled a muscle or something. There is no issues mobility that she could find right nowā¦ so we are leaning towards this being behavioral
She told me to look into getting the Adaptil Collarā¦ I haven't gone on the website, but she says that it is activated by body heat and releases a calming pheromone constantly. She said many of her patients have had success w/the collarsā¦ I was curious if anyone has tried one?!!
Also if you guys have any comments/advice on what is going on w/Wally, I'm all earsā¦ I honestly don't know what is going onā¦
