Hi I wonder if someone can help.
Our 20 month old cocker, Paddy, has been acting really strangely for a few days (he's normally very good and has never been any trouble). He keeps sitting outside in the garden and refusing to come in, even when its raining. Paddy has always been the type of dog that wont go outside by himself when its dark or raining and me - being the fool that I am! - having to wait with him. We've had a puppy (now 15 weeks old) for a couple of months but they hit it off from the start so I don't think thats the problem.
I know cockers can be stubborn, but this is crazy. My husband had to go outside at 10pm the other night with a torch to persuade him to come in. He was sat in his kennel looking very grumpy as if we made him go outside.
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated!
Thanks
Suzie
