The only time Kiko has ever bolted out the front door was to chase a stray cat. She was still a puppy and didn't know leave it or come at the time. Fortunately, the cat was able to jump a nearby fence and get out of sight. As soon as the cat was gone, Kiko flatten to the ground and looked around with a look that said oh shoot, what the heck am I supposed to do now? My daughter had run around the building Kiko was behind and Kiko stayed flattened to the ground until Em got to her and picked her up. She will still go after cats in our little backyard or bark and try to chase strays we pass when we are out walking(she's on a leash, so it's not like she could give much chase). She knows leave it now and will continue walking, but will make all sorts if whining noises to tell me that there's a cat over there and she's not happy about walking away.
Edited to add, She likes to chase birds too. |
