Hi All! I encounter some behaviour by my puppy and would appreciate if you guys can help me figure out why is he doing these thing... thanks! 1. My Benji (a MS) is very very very friendly with everyone who comes to our house. He will jump at them, smelling them, running here and there to show his excitedness etc. But whenever my housemate came home at night the same time everyday??? Yes, he comes home every nite the almost the same time. after work, this particular fren always plays with benji??? No, he doesn't play with Benji at all. he will growl and bark (fiercely) at him but at the same time, wagging his tail. if he's waggin his tail, he's not aggresive Benji stood up very straight, growling and barking with tails wagging. Do dogs growl as a friendly sign? Benji does not growl at anyone else (except him and some of our neighbour's cats! hehe). Benji only does this to him alone, when he was inside his crate. However if he is outside his crate pulak, he is ok with it and will follow him around. that's cuz i think benji wants ur this particular fren to play with him might be, he is a playful puppy. He will continue growling until that guy went upstairs. Whenever I came back from work, he will also bark at me but it's the very excited kinda bark (very high-pitched bark with excited jumping here and there movements)..not growling. I am really confused leh...Wondering if my housemate has sort of bully Benji when we are not at home. Hmmm... Any comment? no bully case here dont worry, if its an abuse by ur fren, benji wont wag his tail. his tail would be down & benji will lie down submissively each time seein ur fren doggies are creatures of routine, if ur fren plays with benji a lot durin the day & benjij seems to like him, so whenever he comes home fr work everynite at the same time, benji would probably greet him excitedly cuz benji wanna play PS: brought him to the K9 yesterday and he seemed to be friendlier to human than to dogs. He will sniff sniff at them but when the dog approaches, he will be backing away and cowering. Is this normal?? But for human, he seems very happy when they sayang him. 2. Me and my bf realised that everytime we went upstair for a while (like 5 minutes) and leave Benji alone (in crate and out of crate), he poopoo in the living room (if he is outside of the crate) and in the crate..in 3 different places, making a lot of mess.. But if we were all downstairs with him, he will go into the toilet and do his business in the toilet. Hmmm...we wonder if he did it purposely?? Or is it just coincidence?? Oh ya, everytime we see poo in his crate, we will immediately let him out to prevent him from stepping on the poo. after poo, will he whine, cry, bark??? wat i see is pure attention grabbin if u answer yes, benji knows that by makin a mees & fuss abt it, he'l get ur attention & u guys would attend to him He will whine, bark, cry and stop awhile (that's when he poopoo) and after that continue whining and crying until we came down. How to deal with this? We don't want him to step on his poo leh...yet don't want to manja him. Hehe. thanks for all your help! ps: didn't see Zeus yesterday but sasha's mommy said she said u :)
We have a new member in our family! Her name is Jessie, a toy poodle!
