Hi all, Its been a very long time since I've posted anything as I've been so occupied dealing with ongoing health issues with our beautiful 15month old boy. Although his health issues are still not resolved, I was hoping you lovely people might have some pointers as to how to help our boy.... so here goes!! Our boy has been and is constantly socialised he is lovely with other dogs, most people when out, and other animals (except birds he believes ALL birds must be chased!!) he is not de-sexed yet however will be within the next few weeks, he is normally a love bug, however over the last few months he has become very anxious (I believe this is mostly due to his illness and constant vet visits). To give examples, he has reverted back to mouthing and biting moving feet, he will not accept any care such as clipping claws, examining minor injuries, wound care and giving medication to name a few! he panics if put outside and will injure himself to get back in, however does ok inside when left alone but wont eat or drink,he wines or barks if me and my daughter are playing (like chasing or giggling!) and has also become very destructive killing eight dog beds in about 4weeks.... I think you get the idea!! anyway any ideas to help curb these behaviours an anxiety before it becomes habit?!
