Archie's behaviour is getting more erratic.
So far today he's spent half an hour sitting over the other side of the room, while DH and I have our backs to him, growling at us.
He's also been snarling if we go near him.
Or if he's not doing that, then he's cowering away. Tail between legs and ears back. I can honestly say we have never hurt him! And the fear is random.
This morning he was following us around, pawing our legs, attempting to lick us, and being playful. Then he suddenly switched.
He's also spent some of today just sitting there whining, again, we've been ignoring it. He's also jumped up and ran after something that wasn't there.
He's like a totally different dog to just 2 months ago.
Today he's even turned down treats!
The painkiller he is on seems to have helped his movement (arthritis), but that doesn't seem to have improved his mood.
We had to put his muzzle on earlier as he was being so aggressive. :( He tried to bite me twice last week.
It's getting so hard to deal with. I hate seeing him like this.
