Hi,
I am worried about Harvey (2.5 years old) - he's been quite spooked for the last few days and will not go for a proper walk - his tail is between his legs he's nervous near the parked cars and strains very hard to get back to the house. Bella seems fine (our other cav - 8 years old) and Harvey hasn't been attacked by any dogs or had a big fright - it all seems very bizarre. He is also spooked in the house and nervously walks around growling.
The other behaviour is that he's started being aroused regularly in the house and sits there panting and aroused, but this has only started in the last few days as well. We had him castrated 18 months ago and I am confused as to why this would start now. Our oter cav Bella is also sterilised and so no longer in heat, which also adds to my confusion. Is it possible that they are 'doing it'? Do they do that just for fun like humans? (sorry but I hate realising that my fur babies aren't really just fur babies and are in fact animals) haha..
I appreciate your advice everyone.. thank you Emma
