Taylor has been going out in the car every day for the past year and a half.
And he has been "shopping" all the time in places like Lowe's, the pet stores, Staples, etc.
Last Sunday morning, Taylor, Face and I went to Petco.
Coming around a corner in the store, I believe Face may have crowded Taylor and Taylor lost his footing and his back legs splayed out.
I saw that happen once around a year ago.
Taylor couldn't stand up straight and was quite frightened, and I got him onto some carpeting in the entrance area and we then left.
Got him home around 15 minutes later, and understandably, he was nervous/anxious with the tile floors in the house.
Throughout the week, he has been getting a lot better walking around the house (I did add a couple of rubber backed runners but it is still 90% tile in here).
He does run around just fine in the back yard, and turns on a dime, so I don't think he hurt himself.
What I have noticed is that while he does want to go "out for a ride" in the morning, and other times, instead of calmly walking to the front door, he starts running away from the front door when he sees me leash up Face and try to get the leash on him (Taylor). Then when I do get the leash on him, he is wagging his tail a LOT and his ears are flat on his head.
He will continue with the furious tail wagging until they both hop into the back of my Tuscon and then he's fine. He'll stand there and look around and then lay down and be quiet as usual.
Any idea why he is getting so tail happy when we head out to the Tuscon?
Is he anxious about going someplace where he might slip again?
This past week we have driven to places where we have then gone on walks (outside), and he is fine, but we did go into Lowe's the middle of this past week (where he has been dozens of times), and he looked upset (ears down and not too happy to walk) so we left after a few minutes.
Any suggestions on what might be going on with him?
