Naughty Paddy
« on: February 09, 2006, 08:56:06 AM »
this week paddy has started to bark at millie a lot.i know some of it is because he wants to play and she doesn't but,if they are given a treat each paddy puts his to one side and sits in front of millie then barks for hers.millie just ignores him and happily carries on eating(nothing gets between millie and food) :lol: we have ignored it but,yesterday he did it while they were eating thier dinner :angry: i put them in separate rooms but paddy just stood there barking till millie had finished.this happened in the morning so in the evening i fed paddy first(much to millies disgust)but he still started barking when millie was eating.
we have no other problems with them and i know i have been very lucky in this respect but i don't want paddy to develope food aggression.i have to be honest and tell you millie kind of taught this to paddy as she was always pinching his bones and sitting on them to torment him.his barking is in no way bothering millie but it is bothering me :)
any suggestions?
