The Psycho Dog Springs Into Action

by Lorine of The Dog Team

Barley becomes frantic when put in the mudroom. It's a lovely room about 12x12 with huge low windows where she can see outside, plus two doors with windows. But she hates it.

That is 'her' room where she is to sleep at night. She has a comfy bed, several mats and of course a nice full dish of fresh water. But she hates it.

The first night we went up to bed and suddenly heard "Thump! Whack! Thud!" It continued for several minutes. Hubby went downstairs to investigate and saw Barley springing straight up in the air almost 6 feet, then throwing herself at the door which shook under her weight, then falling down to the floor. Over and over.

She was frantic.

She was drooling.

She was frothing from the mouth.

The only way I can get to sleep is to put her in the basement bathroom. In the morning we find the door destroyed - claw marks tearing deep into the wood.

I begin referring to her as "The Psycho Dog". The behavior consultant tells me to start crate training Barley. What fun that will be!
