He sits and stares


  • O.k not that I'm complaining at all about this behavior but wanted to know if your B's do this also…Champ has now started to sometimes just go to the middle of the floor sit and look at me. He looks so cute and I love when he's calm like this but what's with that..Do I give him a treat to reward such angelic behavior. Do I go over and rub, kiss him. Just leave him alone? I wonder what he's thinking at these moments, really wish I could read his thoughts. Funny I'm so used to him being a nut around the house, I consider this behavior unnatural...that's funny..lol:D


  • Look out!! He's probably devising his next plan of action!!


  • I think they just have moments of calm…even storms have calmness after it's over :)

    Don't do anything just enjoy....aaaaahhh lol


  • Jazz will stare at me when she wants something. After two years I am getting reasonably good at figuring out if she wants a lap, a treat, etc.

    What cracks me up is occasionally she will sit with her face at the wall or a piece of furniture and just stare…like she's in a time-out or something. LOL
    I think those times she is tired and just sort of vegging until she finally decides to lie down and go to sleep.


  • My B seems to do it the most right in front of the bedroom. Maybe he wants to lay down with me on the bed..he loves being on the bed and naooing with us.

    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!

    Sparkle Barkle came into heat in April. Logan went nuts! I was traveling so my wife was saddled with the mayhem. Mayhem doesn't begin to describe the situation. Sparkle should be coming in again within days, I hope, and unfortunately, he won't get any love this time either. He's gonna be a massive handful for at least a MONTH. I'm not traveling this time, so it's all on me. Cross your fingers for Tri females. I want three!

    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.
