Fit biting

Hi Linda -- fly catching is seen as an OCD -- obsessive compulsive disorder -- issue, neurological in origin.

Do you mean rearing up in hind legs to snap at the air, with forelegs together like a bunny on hind legs? Or bunny hopping when running (sort of carrying both hind legs together). I think you mean rearing up?

Dr Clare Rusbridge explains what it is in a video linked to this brief article -- -- on fly catching. It's often linked to gastrointestinal issues, or allergies or food intolerances:

the most common finding in affected dogs is gastrointestinal disease for example inflammatory bowel disease or intolerances/allergies and ... a change of diet can help

Have a read and then check the video and you can give that info to your vet to try and see if you can address it.
