Ohhh myyyy! Such de ja vu:)
Max, my Pyr/Laab, just started doing this....when I bake fresh bread. I've never had this problem before, and he's never been allowed to do that, but all of a sudden, it's like the bread is worth whatever the chastising will bring! I mean one day my friend came over, and I had just baked bread, so offered her some, and she was at the table, just about to eat, when Max literally sailed over the table, grabbed the bread, and had the entire fat slice down before he hit the floor, and he IMMEDIATELY went under the table, which is where he goes when he knows he's in trouble...I have changed the cooling area for the bread now, (to the top of the fridge....), because he has (in seconds) disposed of the ENTIRE loaf, before we even get a chance to cut it! He actually learned the jumping/standing at the counter while we had a basset hound stay with us for a while...after the basset left, Max knew how to drink from the toilet, stand at the counter, and several other irritating things that we worked hard to make NEVER happen, from pup hood...grrrr., but he has NEVER stolen food off of the counter or out of HANDS until recently...sim
ply shocking, but funny too.
It really seems to be the bread, but I notice that the more attention Ella (our Pyre) gets, the more he acts like a clinically attention starved sibling...whic
h he's not. He gets more attention then Ella by a loooong shot, but the jealousy (on his side) is astounding. It sounds like you just have a character, full of personality...
better then blahhh, right:)?
