Sophie, my almost 2 year old Ruby Cav, has this odd behaviour.
I have a bird aviary up the end of my back yard.
Sophie runs out the back door as soon as anyone opens it and proceeds to jump up the side of the aviary and snap at the poor birds. She seems to think this is something that would make me proud.
So I have ignored the behaviour, yelled at her (which I know is wrong).
I try to call her away, and she just ignors me. She is so stubborn!
This all started when another Cav visited and showed her how to to this. They thought it was a good thing to do.
Not only is this bad for the birds, but she could hurt herself, my worry is she will get caught in the wire.
Any ideas? Please!
