Dog circles room while eating
This isn't a complaint, just curious as to why she does this. We
adopted a 3 year old spayed female (lab/Schipperke mix) from the shelter last week and I'm watching her little quirks (like being fascinated by the sounds of the steam heaters...she'll stand in front of the radiator, transfixed). Last night I noticed this "ritual" while she was eating: She'd take a bite of food from her bowl, and circle the room while chewing...almost like a figure-8 motion. She'd wind up back at her bowl by the time she was done chewing, and repeat. She did this four times. I've read about why dogs circle their bed before going to sleep, but this is a new one to me. Anyone else seen it? |

My sisters dog does this, too. They just think of it as one of her cute
quirks. My dog carries mouthsfull of food into the livingroom to eat 'shrug' |

I have two dogs who do this and find it extremely funny. It was strange
enough when my lab x did it, but a couple of months ago, we adopted a second dog, a yorkie/shar pei x, and she does it too. Funniest thing is that they share their food and water dishes, and they time it out so that while one is at the bowl, the other is circling. Dee "Kathryn Walker" wrote in message ...
