Due to a house fire I have my moms dog. He is a great dog spoiled ROTTEN he is such a suck my parents have made the grave mistake of treating him like a child rather then a dog. He listens and is great with my dogs and my kids. To get him to eat dinner he has to sit with the rest of the family and eat he will not eat alone. I know big mistake dont get me started! I warned them.. but ITS THEIR DOG. things happened now I have custody of the dog.
He does have a few annoying habits though. He paces. I know he is doing it because this is not his house and everything is tossed in the air right now so I guess I have to be patient. He chases my cats to no end!
right now I have my cats locked up in the upper part of the house while the dogs have the run of the down stairs. When we go to bed the cats will locked in my room and the computer room. There is a door that joins rooms. During the day when the dogs have the man floor the cats can go outside so they are not cooped up.
When my moms dog hears the cats, sees the cats he looses his mind running and whining and barking. If this living arrangement is going to work we need to come to some sort of resolution! I am not asking the to snuggle or be best buds... but at least for there to be open doors and this dog not chase my cats.
My moms dog is a Chow Husky X neutered male, basic manners but the stay command goes right out the window when there is a cat involved.
I have tried to keep him on the leash and slowly walk him up to the cat but he looses his mind. 2 of my cats pull moves right out of the Matrix when they see him now because he has tormented them
this living arrangement may be for as long as 6 months until everything gets sorted out by the insurance
thanks for any advice...
