Does anyone else find this happens to them? Ok so Robbo and I love long walks and he plays off the lead most of the time when we are in large open areas with no traffic. Everything is perfect, we have gotten over our terrible twos where we run away from mummy when she brings the lead out, he comes back whenever I call him even when other dogs are playing with him and he is more or less perfect when out now BUT maybe once every 4 or 5 walks it is like he trips out and attacks my feet or if I have wellies on he jumps up and bites jus below my knee. The whole episode lasts about 30 seconds but I always worry about what other people think and hope he never does it to anyone else!! I think he is playing as when I say No! he does stop but I don't know what causes it in the first place! I take balls etc and things on the walk so it is not boredom or at least shouldnt be as he plays with other dogs alot also on walks. Lots of people I meet say not to worry as it is just the terrier in him but he is not a vicious dog in the slightest, in fact he is cuddlier than he ever has been and would hate people to get the wrong impression of him. Touch wood it has only ever been me he has done it to. |
In fact it has got better and is probably once in every 7-10 walks now as it happened today and has probably happened once every week and a half recently so has got slightly better. |
This is just amazing that I read your post. My 9 mo Zoey has just started doing this last week. All of a sudden she bites at my feet - jumps on my legs - spins around and around - all the while barking. The first time she did this she slipped out of her chokeless harness. I even posted about it. She is one not to come when called and I was petrified that she would run away. I layed down in the grass and she came over to run around me and I was able to grab her. What is with this behavior??? Cherie |
oh, I forgot to add. When she does this I put her down like Cesar Millan shows. I have had to put her on the ground three times in a row before she started walking nicely. Cherie |
It is painful too! Yes Robbo barks at me and I hate it as it makes me feel like I have done something to make him upset but I have done nothing different at all! Just walked. no sudden movements, nothing. I am at a complete loss of what it is lol....so many people I meet with yorkies says their yorkie does a similar thing or has a mad 30 minutes... lol |
Robbo stops if I say a firm no I just want to try and get rid of the behaviour lol. |

None of mine have ever done that. Mine usually doesn't pay a bit of attention to me, because there are too many fun things to see and smell!:D |
My dogs walk great but my ex has two chi mix puppies and they did this around 8-10 months he hired a trainer and we broke up right after that so i cant say what the trainer said but you are definatly not alone |
