I have been taking Layla to her new sitter's house to get acquainted with the house and the other dogs before I start leaving her there during work starting next week
I'm sad to leave her but I know it's a great place and she'll get more attention and exercise every day!
Anyways, the other 3 dogs are all chihuahuas and half Layla's size. The older male chihuahua is a little apprehensive. He keeps his distance from Layla, and would bark at her from at least 5 feet away, and then if Layla took a step towards him, or even looked at him, he would scurry away and hide!
Last night he got a little more brave. He came within about 6 inches of her face and they looked at each other. He went around behind her and sniffed and licked her back foot! And then....
He started dancing in front of her. He was moonwalking. LOL! But really, he was doing the thing some dogs do after they pee or poop and they kick their legs backwards like they're covering it. But he was going back and forth in front of her on the carpet, thrusting his legs backwards like he was kicking up dirt. He did it for a good 5 minutes. He would stop if he noticed us looking at him. Layla ran back to me and he did it again, except this time halfway through he turned his butt to her face and acted like he was kicking the dirt on her! She ran the other way. I don't think she knew what was going on either!
I have never seen this happen before. The sitter thought he was doing his "sexy dance" for her, but I have never seen dogs do anything like that to each other before. Any ideas??
