Guest Snazzy_Chloe Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 These guys were raised in cages. I call this the wild dog syndrom - they are just enjoying the great wild outdoors (maybe pertending that they are in a forest)? My pups do this as well as rub their sides against trees & plants; put their nose down and then push it thru flowers and bushes to catch every full rich essence of scent and to also feel it on their nose as well as on the tops and sides of their bodies. I often think that they are trying to leave their scent behind for other dogs to find - maybe another way of marking their territory. They are very focused when they do this so I am sure that they enjoy it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brindles Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 (edited) These guys were raised in cages. Greyhounds are absolutely NOT raised in cages. Where did you hear this information?

TheFullHouse Posted September 20, 2011 Share Posted September 20, 2011 I have to agree with Rachel. They only go in crates at the racing kennel. On the farm they are in long runs where they play and run.

Guest myboys2 Posted September 21, 2011 Share Posted September 21, 2011 Yep, My Bridge boy Junior used to do it all the time! We had no idea what he was doing. He would stand, facing a corner with his eyes closed. My kids thought he was nuts. Also he would stand under a fir tree in the backyard. We used to say he was hiding. If he could not see us, we could not see him! Priceless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
