| Re: He came from a Puppy Mill
I have noticed that Khori is starting to display stress behaviors that he never knew to do before. Maybe he is finally picking them up from my shih tzu, the tongue flicker, yawn, turning of the head. He never learned that, being taken away from the dam at 4 weeks. This is a big deal for him.
It will be a long time before I get another. The thing is, not sure if my husband would go for another rottie after all we are going thru right now. A friend came over to watch the basketball game. I kept Khori on leash, he likes the friend, but the friend has surgery. Guys do what guys do during the game and starts yelling at the TV. Khori last about 1.5 hours, laid down, and started doing the little growls under his breath. So I took him for a walk, then he spent time in his room behind a babygate after that. The other day he actually went into his room on his own to be by himself. This is what we have been hoping for with him to remove himself, instead of growling that has worked for him in the past.  |
