He sits and stares

Behavioral Issues
  • 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.

    @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! :)

    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!

    @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.
