This is also true if I am eating something and he knows he will probably get a little piece....he gets all crazy to think that one of the cats might actually get his piece. This has resulted in the cats all being afraid of him and not wanting to socialize with me any more. He thinks he is the boss of everything and everyone in the house.
The other issue is that he has been trained on pee pads but given the opportunity, he will pee on the corner of the carpet. I have actually trained MYSELF now to keep a much closer eye on him and he no longer has the run of the house during the day when I am at work. Also at night I put a baby gate up in my bedroom so he can't get out. He has no problem holding it all night. So I guess you could say that problem is under control.
Any suggestions on the mean behaviour to the cats? |
I was cracking up reading this.... My dog does the same exact thing to my 2 cats.. He never hurts them and they in fact would probably get the better of him if they wanted to... But he flies at them and snarls and barks like a crazy man dog..... Sometimes he'll even stand about 5 inches away from them and just stare at them so intensly i can see his body almost rocking back in forth while he's doing it... And at any given moment he just goes for it... My cats get scared to walk by him or come in the house if he's right by the door..... But they also play with him.. I just laugh at it.
