It could also be toy guarding. Buddy started this about 1yr of age.
His whole personality changed and he did not have a false pregnacy
He still does it from time to time and it drives me up the wall.
Whenever he does this he never sees the thing again because he
can become very aggressive. For the most part he shares everything but
there are times he won't for whatever reason that is in his head.
Just last week my granddaughter bought him a little stuffed toy
with Lil Buddy on it. I gave it to him and he headed under the chair
and threatened me with his growl and showing of teeth. I gave him
2hrs to calm down, he didn't and I took it away. He will never see it
again. I have broken him 98% but there still are times he does this.
It's not pleasant and it will always be in him.
Look up toy guarding and don't take it lightly. It can become a
problem.
Good luck,
