I asked my grandma and thinking she was being funny she said cuz your her mother. Callie is not a bad dog or mean or anything but I'm thinking this is my fault I havent made her listen to me and stuff enough because when she dosent I just brush it off but I'm not going to do that anymore I know I need to get her listening to me better exspecialy for her safety if she gets out the front door or if she gets an to anything unsafe. I feel kinda like a failure.  |
Please do not feel like a failure ! this is common behavior , and it is NOT about sex. She is trying to be the boss, and dominate. Do not let her do that, even when she keeps coming back trying. My Suzi has done this to me, and I still have to work with her.
My Suzi is A sweetheart too, and loves to play, has a lot of energy, and just sometimes does undesired behavior . Do not blame yourself. IT is what dogs do, even females .With time and patience , your dog can be trained not to do the behavior. PLease don't be so hard on yourself.
