August 6th, 2011



I love catching "funny" behavior in my dogs.  In this video I am annoying Darcy and she starts barking at me.  When she is in a certain mood she hates it when I stare at her (most dogs don't like this anyway), make funny faces at her and then gasp when she barks.  Something else to notice in this video is that she is pretty conflicted.  She is telling me off (barking, ears back, tail wagging) but she also does a lip lick at 24 seconds and is often looking away which means she nervous and doesn't want to start conflict.  Just goes to show that you have to take in to account the whole dog rather than just a specific behavior.
