It appears that you just really, really want everyone to read that this pup is the problem and is planning how to "get to you". Dogs don't DO that. |
This answer was regarding his question on the dog messing in the house/car when you step away for a minute as being vindictive or not. I do have to say, my boys are spoiled rotten, never hit, taken out regularly, etc... but when I leave the room for a few mins they ALSO will mess the house somewhere. If I take them out, come in and shut myself in another room for 5 mins when I come out they will have pooped somewhere in the living room or dining room. It DOES feel almost like they are getting back at me for leaving them. Is this behavior more like they are anxious or nervous that I am IN the house but they can't get to me. Does this anxiety or nervousness make them have to go potty in the house? I'm curious because this is a behavior that I have not been able to break them of myself also. Thanks!
