Angel loves to take her toys to her bed, but when we close the entrance of her pen so she can't get in, she'll keep circling the pen trying to find a way in. She'll whine the whole time while the toy is in her mouth. When we're in the kitchen w/ the doors closed and we throw her toy for her to chase, she'll do the same thing. She'll have her toy in her mouth and whine at the door cuz she can't get out to go to her bed. Once the door is open, she'll run to her bed, drop her toy there and sometimes she'll come out or she'll stay there. It's kind of funny. Do you know why she acts like this?
Also, after she pees on her pad, we praise her when we see her and she'll go back to the spot and sniff it. We always try to distract her from sniffing it. Do most dogs sniff their pee after going?
