Hi,

I'm pretty much at my wit's end here and was hoping somebody might be able to shed some light on this for me... My little buddy, Snickers, is a yorkie with a bottom that is driving him (and unfortunitely me as well) crazy! he is constantly barking at me unless I rub his backside and if I leave him or even stop rubbing his backside he just barks like a mad man again. I've been to the vet (twice) over these last few days and his anal glands are perfectly fine, no worms in his stinkies, x-rays showed no blockage in his little belly or digestive track, his hip(s) are not dislocated and his blood work came back normal. Yet he is constantly dragging his bottom on the rug and constantly barking at me to rub his little bottom! the only time he isn't going nuts is when I take him for a walk. Yesterday it was 8 times! The vet said they felt it was a behavioral issue but this would ne a new behavior I've never seen before. Anyone have any ideas?!?

Thanks for your feed back,

-Goulaay
