Why is my dog acting different/strange? General Dog Discussions
My dog is a pit bull/terrier mix, and she is the sweetest dog I have ever met. Her behavior is always amazing and she is always well-behaved. She hardly EVER barks, she does what she is told, she knows her limits (what she can touch/do, what she can not touch/do), she is proper on walks, she is house trained, and she is overall sweet and loving to everyone.Yet these past two days have been odd. She's been barking a lot, even at people she wouldn't before (family members)! She's been hectic on walks, (paranoia at little sounds, barking at people passing by, and sniffing EVERYTHING. It's strange, she sniffs even the pavement), she's pooped inside the house, growls at people for no reason, and she has been disobeying like crazy! She knows not to beg at the table, chew on things not her own, etc. and she doesn't obey her commands anymore! It's like she feels the need to be rebellious.I don't know if this'll help, but, she's 4 years old, about 50 pounds, and she eats about 3 cups of food per day. Also, my mom had suggested that maybe she's just cranky from a lack of sleep? She goes to bed when I go to bed, and I get around 8-6 hours of sleep a day, but she takes naps throughout the day.Please help me find out what's wrong with my dog! :(She IS spayed btw!
