need some help with Otis "dog behavior" lol
from all the greys I met and dogy-sit this boy does not act like any grey I met!
Otisis a nearly 3 year old (august 5th), bright ang intelligent male, he arrived 1 week ago from the tracks. He did 13 races total. high energy, nothing scares him! in learned doing stairs in 4 days!!!
this mkorning during the walk he got all exited about squirrels, he fixe and whnnes like usual but this morning he started barking at them! 6am on a sunday morning! but we will work on that...
Here' my main behavior concern:
He is obsess to see what's going on outside the house, from windows, patio doors or front door... living in a 4plex buildng there's a balcony in the front of the house, so many times a day tenants pass on it... and the side-walk and street is at about less then 15 feet from the window so lot of things to see and watch... Otis stands there and watch... If he could only do that silenlty and calmely... no.. he is whinning and get excited (some time he puth is font paw on the door or on the side of the window, I'm scared he will get injured)
I've tried many times to shush him out, get him out of the window or dor but he is really stubburn!
for next week he will stay in his cage for sure duing work time (like the pass week)... I wanted to start letting him loose alone during the day but I'm affraid...
we would appreciate tips and help to stop or get this "watching-winning-exited-window-door-looking" behavior under control
otherwise things are doing good, he does the front an backyard stairs by himself, never had pee or poop accident in he house, never growl or bark at Elliot (andother grey I'm dogy-sitting).
yesterday we were all out in the yard and Otis lay on his side in grass, he started robing himself in the grass and rolled over a fiew times.. so funny! no roach but it was cute!
