Hi,
I was reading that very interesting posting on growling and pups being taught respect by the older dogs, which was very informative and accurate in my experience.
I was wondering if anyone else has come across the following behaviour -
Gizmo (Bleinheim male) is 17 months and Charlie (terrier cross female) is 5 months .. when they play or when Gizmo is lying down chewing on his toys, Charlie has a habit of standing over him so he's literally under her belly .. It's very cute to see and Gizmo loves it as he'll usually turn over onto his back and start playing with her .....
I just have never seen something like that before ....
When they were both minded a couple of weeks ago the lady, told us that they are very close.... they got separated in different areas of the garden and couldn't find each other and apparently started crying until they heard one another. They have been separated before for vaccinations / neutering and I was wondering if it's ok that they are this close, or if we should try and make them more independant?
