Dog acting differently?

Question

I am 8+3 and I swear my dog knows something. He has been overprotective (sleeping right in front of the front door and barking/growling at everything walking by). Yesterday when I was walking him, a group of teenage boys walked by, being loud, play punching each other, etc. Not bothering anyone, just being typical teenagers. My dog growled at them and jumped on the one boy who was play punching! He never jumps!

And, he's been laying next to me with his head on my stomach, which he never does. I swear he knows something's up.

Is anyone else experiencing anything like this?

Answer

My dog has been EXTRA clingy. She's normally clingy, I can't go to the bathroom or move within the house without her right up on my heals. She also has been growling and barking more than usual (she's a chihuahua so she usually barks quite a bit lol). But binding mind the extra loving. She's my fur baby. ☺️

Answer

My dog has been doing the same thing on walks- lunging at other dogs and growling- very out of character! I think I'd prefer the extra snuggles! Glad to hear others fur babies are acting similarly nutty :)

Answer

my dog never likes to cuddle. he has always slept at the foot of my bed and now he snuggles my stomach every night.... I'm 7.5 weeks

Answer

Our dog has been acting differently but not in a good way!
She never usually chews anything or plays up but for the last few weeks she's been chewing anything in sight and we just know that we're going to be coming home to our mail shredded all over the kitchen!
She also been peeing in the house if anyone comes round or if we tell her off. So out of character. I'm really struggling with her at the minute and it just feels like one more thing to worry about which we don't need!

Answer

My mom has a normally very wild, excitable dog she is trying to train not to jump on people and bark. She normally barks when she hears my car and jumps immediately, but she was very quiet when I came to see her and (though I could tell she wanted to) didn't jump! I think she was trying to be gentle.

Answer

I'm only 6w4d and our dog is driving us crazy. He barks and growls at every little noise. He likes to sit in the front window and usually he would be quiet but now whenever I'm home he won't shut up. It started happening as soon as I told my DF I got a positive on a HPT

Answer

I was actually just thinking about this last night! I'm only 5w and my dog keeps laying right next to me or pressing his nose against my tummy even though it hardly looks any different! So weird!

Answer

Animals are clever. My cat keeps staring at me. Nothing else just staring. He's never done it before.
