Hi everyone.
My dog Tish is driving me bonkers, I love her to pieces but she has had me so stressed that I have considered to re-home her. I could never do that of course because she's my babe. She is a small dog, a cross terrier of some type and she is 4 years old. I have had her from a puppy and her erratic behaviour is getting worse.
Firstly she goes beserk at the TV. This may sound funny but I can't watch a football game because she tries to get the ball and chase the players. She barks and whines all the way through the match. She hates the go compare man and goes mad when he is on tele. She will also go mad at the Tv at the local news music, running horses and dogs. Then there is the vaccum, she hates it and goes crazy when ever I turn it on. She also chases shadows on the floors and walls. She actually bites the floor where the shadow is. Finally she barks her head off at the sound of motorbikes driving past. All the while she chases her tail, going round and round and round, she is extremely intense.
As I say she is driving me mad, I have tried putting her out of the room but she just does it in the hallway instead, chasing her tail, barking and running up and down, I think she is actually insane! I walk her for an hour a day where she has a good run chasing her ball. I'm out of ideas now, I was wondering if any of you could help?
