Okay I know the Okie in me just came out... and no I don't REALLY want to hog tie her, but I'm at my wits end! Harlow's 'playing' has gotten way too extreme lately. She has always been the vocal one, and has always snarled like a lion or something while playing, but lately it is out of control! Her noises are non-stop, and her playing is much more brutal. I can tell it's still play, but I know it's not okay for it to be so harsh. She has always played really nicely with Boss, but now she has gotten rough with him, too. I just think it's crazy that now after all this time her play is changing... She is about 2 and a half we think... not really sure. Maybe she's just a late bloomer?
I've been trying to stop play time and make her sit for a minute or so whenever she is too amped up, but it doesn't seem to be doing any good.
I'm just at a loss because my little delicate flower (yeah right) has turned into a beast of a dog!
