We got Rosie as a puppy 6 months ago. We believe she is probably a Cattle Dog/Boxer mix.She looks just like a cattle dog only with brindle coloring. She has been crate trained and has no problem with the crate. She will sleep in her crate when we our home but when we leave she will druel excessivly and soak her cage. Now she won't come to us when she is outside if she thinks we are going to leave or even when we are not going to leave. She will stay close to me but won't come to me even for a treat.Eventually she will come inside if I leave a door open and hopefully I will be near it to close the door before she runs outside again. She also bites the kids ankle or arm when they are running or riding their bikes.She runs around the house like a crazy dog and will even jump on the garage roof.Is there any hope for her separation anxiety to get better?What is the best way to get her to stop biting.She went to obedience training but I feel she needs more.Any good agility or obed. books/


Answer
The nipping of the ankles definately makes her a cow dog. Cow dogs are really smart. A sharp "NO" should teach her not to bite. But the herding instinct of stopping your kids on a bike... We had a queensland that had to go because she was more protective of me as a kid than my mom was. She might not outgrow that. She was bred to protect the stock. And if she thinks the kids are getting too far, she is just naturally herding them back to where they should be. That will be much harder to break her of. That's why the queenie left, my parents never found a cure for that. As for fear of being crated, some dogs take to that, others fear the confines. All I can suggest is she will take much more time than most dogs. You will have to pay a lot of attention to her. If you have a ritual you do before leaving (in my family, it's put your shoes on) make sure you catch her before you do that, otherwise she'll see the action and know what's comming next. Good luck.

my dog keeps getting the hick-ups!?




jeez


i don't know why but i give her some water to see if she wants to drink and she flips her bowl over and takes it to her crate. she has had the hick-ups daily for like a week now the first day i kinda kept tapping her back to see if it would stop and eventually she just fell asleep with it help please!


Answer
lol my dog used to do that all the time. she still likes to bury her food and if left alone she might flip over her water too. she is a queensland heeler, just a couple years old. hiccups are completely normal in a puppy for sure, they tend to go away as the dog gets older. some breeds are more prone than others.

she should be fine hiccuping, if there is no breathing problem. if you're really concerned you could bring her to a vet anyway.

you might want to put her water in a dish she cant flip, just so she gets out of the idea of dragging the dish away. my dog rarely flips the water anymore after putting the dishes in a metal holder she couldn't turn so easily.
