- - Anything that makes a loud/deep rumbling MUST BE EATEN THIS MOMENT. The other day I had to pry him off a friend's truck because he was BITING (literally hanging off it) it because it was running. He hasn't done that since he was real little.
- If he doesn't get his way he'll sulk. And by sulk I mean he'll go open my underwear drawer, grab some undertaking, and go running off with it. This is a habit he had (the grabbing the stuff off the floor and running with it) but was broken; the opening the drawer is new. So is the fact that he will bring it back to you upon command, but then will grab it back out of your hand and repeat the running around with it. You need ninja skillz to end the game.
- Another way he sulks is to over protect mom. Because standing there barking at the leaves falling outside while we are inside 20 yards away is really what he should be doing with his time.
- Random testosterone fluxes will literally make him insane. Like suddenly the carpet is an evil threat that must be killed at all costs. If you tell him it's fine he'll stop, but low and behold the next danger is the desk! It must be barked at!
- Every other day a well known command is forgotten. What's sit again?
- All dogs must die on days that start with an S. And only an S. Other days are fine.
- Children have suddenly become the best prey objects EVER. (He won't harm them at all, just trills and screams in excitement when he sees them and tries to chase them)
- Grass is an orgasmic experience apparently. And no, not literally, thank goodness.
- Random licking attacks that will stop if you freeze and begin again if you move.
So my poll is, is this a "normal" part of the growing stages, and what stories do you have of this time? And it ends right? Please tell me it ends. I have half a liquor store in my house currently and I think I need more...
