OH! i guess not....i guess he's just a puppy chasing his tail
my mother and grandmother made me so mad just now, they came to pick up my brother from my house who stayed the night. and my grandmother walks into the living room, and max goes up to greet her, very politely like a good dog, i was so proud of him (he's a very anxious dog, and gets nervous easily)and as dogs do when they greet some one, he decided to sniff her butt, (keep in mind they've never met before 'strangers') she says "NO NO! BAD DOG! and he stops tail wagging low the whole time ears back just being a sweetie, and he sniffs again like the stubborn dork he can be, and she stops walking, turns around, stares at him in the eyes and repetedly saiy no no bad dog....except she doesnt stop! she kept saying it, staring him down...hello? you dont do that to any dog you dont know. max became extremely uncomfortable and backed up and 'according to my mother growled' i didnt hear, but he wagged his tail low with ears back the whole time. when i realised my grandmother was just going to continue this nonsense,"it was like she was stuck on repeat i dont know what got into her" i went and got max and made him lay down by me, but my mother says "christy he's growling at her!!!" like he's frothing at the mouth and realy growling....no
w YALL have big dogs, and yall have heard em growl...not the nervous under the breath growl, or the play growl, but the 'there's a stranger in the dark going to get you growl, that could scare the daylights out of anybody the real growl. it just realy made me mad that max did so good when guests came over, and then this is what he gets for it. the poor guy, im so ticked. he was such a gentleman. and he still got labeled a bad dog.
