Suddenly Whining ALL the Time
Started this discussion. Last reply by Lauren Rae & Fauna Apr 16. 5 Replies 0 Likes
Appa used to just whine when she wanted something specific. But lately it's just all the time, seemingly. I mean, I'm guessing she wants or needs something but I can't figure it out. She just turned…Continue

Appa is extremely (when im around). Im doggie sitting for a friend I know Appa likes Laila-- they play together all the time. But with Laila in HER house near HER toys ... not a happy corgi. She…Continue
Training to hold leash in mouth while walking?

I figured this might be a good idea for Appa because it would give her a job to do while we walk. I've been working with her walking without me holding the leash (letting it drag) and she's doing…Continue
Appa's still acting weird.

I'm posting a video of how she acts around other dogs--completely uncharacteristic. I'm taking her to the vet tomorrow for a booster shot and I'm also going to discuss her behavior with the vet. But…Continue

Jen Giammona replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion Suddenly Whining ALL the Time"Linus will often whine for no reason. Once we've exhausted all of our options we usually "shush" him and it works. Sometimes I think that he thinks he's talking to us. "

Appa used to just whine when she wanted something specific. But lately it's just all the time, seemingly. I mean, I'm guessing she wants or needs something but I can't figure it out. She just turned a year last month. It's not food, toys, wanting to sit with me on the couch, petting... o.0 Is this a normal corgi thing? It's driving me a bit nuts.See More

Appa Gene GypsyQueen commented on Jose Manuel Franco's blog post What will my puppy look like?"Appa looked a bit like that when she was a pup. She's got a lot of red in here but has a black mask and markings on her back as well as black interspersed through her coat making her look dark red/brownish. Here's what she looked like at 7…"
Appa Gene GypsyQueen replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."Yeah i've definitely noticed Appa's bossy streak, lol. She also seems to be QUITE the elitest. She always loves playing with other corgis right off the bat and pays little to no attention to other dogs if any of her kind are around. lol,…"
Appa Gene GypsyQueen replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."thanks for the input. Some dogs are warded off (usually ones that are bigger than her) and others run around and scuffle with her. The chihuahua Im watching scuffles h her so i guess its all good and i shouldnt worry. lol, i definitely have a habit…"
Donald Till replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."We've never had a problem adding puppy's. We've carefully added a total of 5 over the years - even Snoopy, our aggressive male (deceased) took to them. At one time we had 2 older dogs stay with us for 18 months. One…"
Beth replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."I think we'd have to see her in action. When mine play they can sound pretty fierce; most play is mock fighting or mock hunting, and some dogs seem to sound more like the real thing than others.
I find that people at the dog park…"
Appa Gene GypsyQueen replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."if we get another it will be a boy most likely. maybe that would indeed make a difference. "
Appa Gene GypsyQueen replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."hmm never considered leashing to correct this issue. might just have to give it a try. Also I'm having trouble figuring out if she is being aggressive or playing sometimes. The sounds shes making sound angry but she doesnt always come across as…"
Anna Morelli replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."You describe a pet sitting situation (so temporary) and I would just manage it by feeding them in different rooms, as you are doing, removing any food type toys or any toy that Appa seems particularly possessive of, and putting a leash on the one…"
Bev Levy replied to Appa Gene GypsyQueen's discussion NOT so great with sharing her space..."I have dealt with this problem in the past by leashing the offender in the house and attaching the leash to me while I go about my regular day.

Samantha Rose Standish said… Haha. Mozzie would've torn the tree apart. We chose to use a fake one that sat on the dinning room table. So there were no needles and no chance of him getting to it. Maybe next year when he's not only 5 months and chewing on everything for Christmas we'll try a real one. lol

Brianna said… Sounds like smooth going! Thanks again for the info. By the way, I saw your most recent blog post, and I hope Appa feels more like herself soon. It was definitely hard on my dog the times my dad was deployed growing up. It's hard enough on the humans who know where and why someone has left the home. Best wishes to both of you. I hope the time apart passes quickly!

Thanks for the response! Which carrier did you use? No trouble from the airline at all? I don't even have my puppy yet (late spring/early summer arrival!) but I typically have to make travel plans home to California quite far in advance, so I'm trying to figure out logistics before I have more immediate distractions :)
