Okay two questions...
Anyone have a fake pee-er? Summer is sooo bad about it! I was scolding Mia for not going (dog has seriously only gone on two potty trips today) and said sternly 'Go potty!'
Summer, even though she had already gone, ran out into the yard and squatted like she was peeing only her tail was going 100 mph and she was watching me the whole time. She didn't move till I released her.
Anyone else have a dog that does that? Summer has forever if you ask her to potty and she doesn't need to go. In my apartment my roomies and I would laugh and laugh at the fake potties.
Question 2, can someone explain the behavior to me? I've always heard that dogs can't reason through things like that. Her thought process seems to be 'Well I don't need to go so I will just squat over here.' It just seems like a complicated thought process for a dog.
This should have been put in the general section.
