| Does this mean anything? Should I be worried? Let me see how to explain this.... When Tiffany is walking, she will walk up against the wall or couch or whatever she is by.... like the rubs into it. Sometimes like she is drunk or confused. I thought maybe she was doing that because she had a dress or outfit on. Do you think that might be it... it's kinda like the way a cat would rub agaist your leg. Do yours do this?? |

| Maybe your furbaby is itchy? Baby rubs her face like that in the morning to try and get the gunkies out of her eye!

| Tucker does this, but it is because he has a liver shunt. How old is your baby? And she might just be itchy like Nicole said.

| I had one that did this. I was forever painting a 4" strip down my hallway because the oils in her coat would leave a dingy strip. She had no medical problems and wasn't itchy so I really don't know why she did it. I never thought she looked drunk or confused though. |

Donating YT 30K Club Member | Kristi, Cali does that alot where she will walk up against the wall and she always sit's leaning up against the kitchen wall. It may be the dress, but if she is doing it when she is not in a dress and acting confused and or drunk that CAN be a sign of a possible Liver Shunt. I know she is very tiny and not a little puppy did the breeder have her Liver shunt tested? I would if she hasn't because they can treat her before any damage is done. Cali does have mild MVD or internal shunts but has no symptoms and needs no treatment other than I watch her protein intake. PM me if you want to talk about it further.

| Loki rubs against the couch if I don't take his sweatshirt off as soon as we get back from a walk. He also does it right after a bath.
