Category: Dog Behavior

Most odd dog behaviour has a simple reason once you know what to look for. This section explains why dogs lean on walls, stare at doors at night, steal socks, lick ankles, paw at their water bowl or sit with their back to you, and how to tell a harmless habit from a sign of stress or discomfort. You will also find guidance on separation anxiety, leash reactivity and other problems that are worth working on. Each guide gives practical steps in plain language and says when it is time to speak to your vet or a qualified trainer.
