My Bo is almost two (on 9/23) & she seems to be going through a change. In the last few months or so, she's become more vigilant with her guarding behavior, especially at night. She also has become WAY more protective of us when we're out in public, often barking at people if they approach us. She's not aggressive, just noisy. Anyway, this is a change for her, as she's normally not this vocal and/or hypervigilant. I wanted to know if this was normal for Pyrs of this age range. I'm a first-time Pyr mom & I'm still trying to learn as much as I can about the breed. I've read all the books, but we don't have a lot of Pyr people around here, so I'm putting it out to the BPO family to see what other pyr parents have seen in their young dogs.
Thanks!
Jenn & Bo
