Thanks for responding.
The original incident happened in my brothers backyard. My wife heard a big yelp coming from our dog. Right after that she (our dog, not my wife) ran into the house and onto my lap, where she stayed for the remainder of the evening. we aren't sure about what hapened, but these dogs have been playing every few days together for about a year and have always gotten along well. My dog weighs about 22 pounds...the lab is 85. Since then, she is very timid around other friendly dogs...jumpy....quick to run away or hide behind me when we are on walks. Today I spoke with my brother on the telephone to tell him about my dog and suggest that we take the two on a walk tomorrow morning with hopes that she might get comfortable again....when she heard my brothers dogs name (beleive it or not) she got really weird and would do anything to get out of the house. We have a fenced backyard...but she usually wants to be around my wife and I...in or out. Today...she shakes at times, nervously...and if she isn't glued to my side...she wants to be out of the house...in the rain. The whole thing has got me befuddled...and I hope this is just a temporary thing that might pass tomorrow. Any thoughts? Dave "Handsome Jack Morrison" wrote in message ...

Get her to the vet asap. What you describe sounds like an injured dog, as
Debbie S pointed out. Shaking and a strange desire to be away from you & the house (her comfort zone) is not good. Check her over (literally pick her coat apart to see her skin over every square inch of her body) for any scabs, discoloration of the skin, swelling, punctures, scrapes, etc. Gently press around to see if you may be able to find a sore spot by watching her reaction to applied pressure. Keep her hydrated and watch her stools for signs of more trouble. -- Tara |
