Purdey shocked us all yesterday by her behavior towards a visitor... she has always barked at the door bell but once we've answered it and told her "it's only blah blah blah" she has a sniff and happily goes back to her bed. Yesterdays Visitor was barked at growled at, all her hackles were up and when her ears went back and her eyes seemed wild I knew this wasn't just a warning!!!!
The door routine was just the same as any other day and luckily my husband knows the visitor well - unlike Purdey but we were all friendly.
how do I get her to understand that the visitors we let in are ok and the ones that let themselves in are the baddies?
Do I just hope this was a one off or do I address this head on? if the latter then how do I go about this without putting another visitor at risk.
Purdey is just the biggest softy and layed back it seems totally out of character??
kind regards
