behavior

Let me start by saying I didn't want to do this but lately Frankies behavior is getting dangerous to his health. He has been stealing things with increasing frequency. Last night he stole my car keys off a table that he should not be able to reach, and if he didnt set off my car alarm, I would...

ah yes... the crazy dog mom behavior continues!! My friend is an absolutely amazing pet portrait artist. All watercolor if you can believe it. I finally got off of her waiting list, and she is currently working on frank. I am just so excited for this, I had to share some progress pictures. here...

I'm not sure if this is behavior related or something else is going on. for a few weeks now Ruthie has decided to start peeing on her bed and the other bed(for people) in the room she sleeps in. I even caught her this past Saturday doing it right in front of me. Some days it will happen, some...

hello everyone Iam new to this site I have questions and hopefully you guys can help me. I have a 3 year old bulldog who is extremely spoiled but within the last month he has started barking and growling at night. he barks at me until I get out of bed and he gets really excited but when I go...

I have had plenty of dogs in my life so I can rather spot an abused animal, but I am not sure if this is just normal behavior or what. We got a new bulldog (not drogo) last week and upon arrival into our home she was very timid. We have kept the two seperated and she has her own toys and other...

Hi friends :) I had a question regarding my fathead. You'd think we'd be thankful his biting and chomping have stopped, and that he seems to have replaced it with licking, but it does bring up some questions for me. I mean he licks EVERYTHING. I can't really tell if it's just who he is or if...

Lately I've noticed that when my husband is home and we sit on couch, Bennie comes to sit by me and he starts to stare at Boeboe, licking his mouth, drooling and the hair on his back is standing up like he's ready to attack her. Last week he even stared my husband out like that:( It sucks. It's...

Hello all! Well, Lord Stanley has developed a new obsession. Every time I take him outside (we live on the 2nd story of an apartment complex), he goes crazy on the leash after doing his business outside. A typical example of this is as follows... I put his leash on him, in the...

Hello, I recently noticed a growth on the outside surface of my bullie's vagina. It is about the same color of her skin and is not irritated at all. The only thing I've seen her do is drag her butt around the carpet. She eats, sleeps, poops, just fine and have not noticed any abnormal behavior...

Hi everyone! My name is Jazzy and my boyfriend and I own a 4 year old girl named Roxy. We are originally from Seattle, WA and have been living here in Vegas for about a year now. We have been very blessed with such a healthy, loving, and sweet girl. Besides her allergies (which got a lot...

Hey Y'all, I am considering whether or not to spay my EBD. I've heard it can negatively alter the behavior of your female bully, even though it has not been scientifically proven. I was wondering if any of y'all could shed some light on y'all's experience with the matter? My EBD is not even...

Angus is 1 ( today is his birthday in fact) & if another dog jumps on us, he will throw them down & hold them there. We can't pet another dog, he goes crazy. We live in an apt complex & honestly hasn't really been around too many dogs. The few he has been around he gets along well with until...

Wally went to the groomers yesterday, and he was there for quite a while because the groomer's brought their hairless cat Cleo… I knew that Lily wanted to see her, so I waited till she got home from school to pick him up. Anyhoo last night when I normally sit on the chair to watch a little TV...

Dozer's Info... I am already neutered, purebred, up to date with shots, and not good with kids. Dozer's Story... Meet Dozer! He came in CEBR due to his awkward behavior around his family's younger grandchildren. He's a big (literally) lover who will just need a home...

So Elliot my soon to be 9 week old puppy started off so laid back and loving at 6 weeks but as time has gone on we cant even touch him without him biting down so hard that it has drawn tears from me and blood from my husband. I understand puppies play and are teething, we say no, yelp, ignore...

Hi- new to this site as of today and I have a few concerns. I have a 9 week old bulldog that I fear is already showing signs of aggression. He is constantly trying to bite at feet, hands, and clothing. I have tried the "yelping" thing- he releases but then lunges back at me. Tried ignoring him-...

Buster!! Came in with a bang.. immediate surgery and then time spent at hospital as he recovered and was desensitized to his fear of traveling even short distances in a car. Now in foster care and doing well, though continues to work on anxiety and behavior. Because of travel issues, will need...

We are the new owners of a 3 year old kennel rescue EB, we've named Sadie. The site has already been a big help to us with understanding her skittish behavior. We are having trouble convincing her that she is not a lapdog, however, haha.

We rescued our EB in October. We don't know much about his background other than he was neglected and we believe, abused. He was found as a stray by animal control and then by a rescue group. He came with a lot of medical issues which we have been treating at our local vet-med university...

Well, I just have to tell y'all how proud I am of my girl. Some of y'all probably remember what a naughty puppy Winnie was--such a terrible biter and absolutely terrible with my grand babies! Not mean, just way too rough, jumping on them, bulldozing over them. The last couple times I've kept...

Hi All, it's been a while since I have been on here and a lot of things have happened, unfortunately none of it good. However, I am keeping the faith and I pray every day, all day, that the Lord will see me through all of the horrible events going on in my life. This current decision is just...

I need some help/advise please!! My fiance and I just got an almost 2 year old (in May) EB from a lady that didnt have time for him anymore. We went over to her house on Saturday morning and met him, his name is Chaos. He was VERY friendly towards us but they also had a smaller dog that nipped...

I'm sorry, I might have asked this before, but I'm still just not sure what's right/wrong. Bella has these fits, which I think are part of her zoomies. She's uncontrollable, she jumps up on the couch (front paws only--she's still small) and I make her get down...but she gets back up again...

Elmo has started to attack my two Chihuahuas, Sheltie, Collie, Schnauzer. He jumps on top of them and goes after their neck, I cannot put my 2 Chihuahuas down on the floor when he is out of his crate, same goes for my Sheltie and Schnauzer. Collie, Elmo goes up to her and growls and forces her...

I talked to the vet today about Roxie's results... Her biopsy came back negative for cancer, but she did have colitis. Nothing that the vet said was unusual, something that does happen w/boxers… I never noticed her having bouts of diarrhea or vomiting. It would just happen occasionally and of...

Our theory: hubby being home or around in general makes it worse. Things seem to be getting better very slowly but as soon as Chubbs hears the car locking outside, he does a 180°. I'm not allowed to be near hubby, yea like that's gonna happen. After getting the tether, we believe Chubbs has...

At what age did you let your puppies walk around the house freely? We currently have baby gates downstairs so he can't go into the dining room, basement, or upstairs alone. I don't know when I can take them down and start trusting him that he won't have accidents around the house or get into...

1/3/15: Please welcome Sadee and Bruce! Bruce and Sadie are a result from a divorce. Wife in the divorce wanted to hurt her ex-husband so she requested to keep the them. But shortly after the divorce she wanted to go on vacation, and was never home so she evicted they did not like the big dogs...

I picked Roxie up this morning and brought her home… normally she is super excited to see me, but this time she looked right thru me :*( ALL she is doing at home is pacing, not eating or drinking. I talked to the vet, she said not to panic she was well hydrated there so give her time. We are...

My dad sent me 2 César Milan videos, both for food and toy aggressive dogs. One of the dogs was 12 year old and the owners ad been dealing with the behavior the entire time! César came in and just slowly stood over the food bowl, acting as an alpha claiming the food. We tried it and bam, it...

It's hilarious but I'm jealous of hubby. He gets this kind of behavior while I get the other kind. :gloom: Don't mind my ogre hubby, haha.

One of my managers friends breeds and trains bull mastiffs. My manager said she had been talking to her friend about Chubbs' behavior. The trainer said to never hand feed. Instead, to put a single kibble in the food bowl, one at a time. Apparently there's a difference but I don't see it, does...

I have a 4 year old female bulldog. I have had her for about 5 months. She is my only dog and I have 2 cats. The dog and cats get along just fine. Prior to me getting her, she lived with multiple other bulldogs and was bred. I have noticed that if another dog, particularly my parent's dog...

Anyone else experience this with their pup? Bella is pretty calm, lovable, and well-behaved most times. After she eats, however, she is hyper and more inclined to ignore commands. It always passes soon enough, but it's kinda funny. The good news is that I can plan for her crazy behavior. The...

Need some advice. My dog is 8 years old now and usually energetic and happy but today he didn't even eat, barely drank any water, gone to the bathroom, hasn't barked and is acting very strange. He's usually happy to be around us and today he just looked sad. He's still sitting next to us but...

First off everyday my EBD amazes me. He is so fun to have around and everyday he does something different. The last few days he has started licking the wood door that goes to our basement. I'm not sure why he does this but he just sits there and licks away. Has anyone every had a EBD do this...

We've only had Wellie since September 20th, so not even four months yet but I've noticed something peculiar. Sometime in October, he was in a very deep sleep on the couch. I sat down and put my arm around him. He immediately woke up, ran across the couch like the devil was chasing him, and...

MoMo is 20 months old (born 4/1/13), neutered and mostly house-trained although he does have some accidents. He came into rescue emaciated and sick and had a severely infected tail which needed to be amputated and he is now happy and pain free. He does have some crate anxiety so he should not...
