EllenEveBaz Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Dog curls up next to human on sofa. Human pets dog. Dog immediately gets up, moves as far away as possible on sofa, facing away from human. This happens almost every day, with both dogs. I think it's given me some sort of complex.

macoduck Posted January 6 Share Posted January 6 Its not you, its me. Have you tried switching sides? We made need to find a dog psychiatrist to analyze this. Have you changed your petting technique? Eaten food without sharing? Experimented by sitting on their dog beds and then swapping beds? Offered to let them use the TV remote control?

LBass Posted January 7 Share Posted January 7 20 hours ago, ramonaghan said: Dog is cat. My cat Tinker is a real lovebug when he wants attention. If I move to pet him when he "vants to be left alone", the stinker actually physically lowers his back away from my hand. That kind of pointed rejection is sure hard on human self esteem. 1 Quote Lucy with Greyhound Nate and OSH Tinker.

GreyPoopon Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Even though I'm very used to it, it still drives me nuts when it happens. The woolly dog, on the other hand, will take all the attention offered and then demand more. That's almost more annoying. No pleasing the human here either.
