BingBlaze n Skyla Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 It might be that as it would be around the normal time she would have a season that she's feeling like this her hormones will still be all over the place , after skyla was fixed she still acted like she did when she was having a season around the same time she would have actually had a season had she not been fixed ,, [MENTION=1262]Rosemary[/MENTION] s girl acts the same way too she did a thread about it awhile ago Sent from my ST18i using Forum Runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Sometimes they just "go off their food" for a few days. It's not uncommon. However more than a couple of days would have me looking for other things. Have you checked all your plants in the garden. They are notorious for having a "nom" on leaves and flowers. You might have something in there that's not dog friendly. Has she been to the local dog park might have picked up something there. She'll probably perk up soon.

Rosemary Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 It is difficult to know what causes them to change so suddenly and so out of character. Micah still goes through phases - every six months or so and she was spayed over two years ago. I have no idea, as she is healthy, and eats and drinks without any problems. I have put it down to her being a girl ( ), but we do watch her when she moves into this 'stage' as she gets quite aggressive with Ozzy and won't let him near us or her. I would watch Nova, especially to see that she is drinking enough water, and if you feel uncomfortable and feel there is more going on, I would take her to the vet for a checkup. Mark this date on the calendar and see how long it lasts, and if she goes through this phase again, please let us know it would be interesting to know, as I can't find much about other dogs going through the same.
