strange dog behavior
My dog has been acting very strangely for the past 2 weeks. Ever since
we came home from spending 2 weeks at my parents' house, she has started having accidents in the house again (after a long period of no wetting). She is about to be a year old. When we come home, she'll immediately put her tail between her legs and hide under a bed. Whenever we scold her for doing anything wrong now, she'll just put her tail between her legs and pee. She seems very depressed. I would love some advice or info; I want my spunky dog back! Thanks. Laura |

Laura Your dog is hiding from you because she anticipates you are going to scold her and is anxious and wants to avoid you. That's not acting strange, that is natural. She must be one very uphappy dog. Please stop scolding her. Alison |

Has the vet checked her for urinary infection or similar problems?

Ever since we came home from spending 2 weeks at my parents' house, Did she go with you, or was someone else caring for her? Did something go wrong that upset her? Peeing can be caused by stress. What else is she doing wrong? Anything new? she has started having accidents in the house again (after a long period of no wetting). She is about to be a year old. When we come home, she'll immediately put her tail between her legs and hide under a bed. Whenever we scold her for doing anything wrong now, she'll just put her tail between her legs and pee. That can be a submission gesture -- a dog's way of saying "Yes, sir" when she's scolded. She seems very depressed. I would love some advice or info; I want my spunky dog back! Thanks. Your dog is hiding from you because she anticipates you are going to scold her and is anxious and wants to avoid you. That's not acting strange, that is natural. She must be one very uphappy dog. Please stop scolding her. That sounds like a good first step! All the scolding must be increasing the stress. Margaret |

It sounds as if she was severly punished and possibly hurt for accidents. Just my 2cents' worth Kathi |
