Why is my dog disobedient?
Most cases however, are simply overly energetic dogs that may not be getting sufficient exercise and routine to their day, or who are being accidentally rewarded when they act excitedly (see Play and Exercise and Using Enrichment, Predictability, and Scheduling to Train Your Dog).
Why does my dog suddenly not want to go for walks?
Dogs that suddenly don’t want to go on walks may be in pain or they might have been frightened by something on a previous walk. When that happens, take your dog to the vet for a check-up. Once they are healthy and pain-free, they will want to walk again.

Why does my dog stop jumping on the bed?
Stopping jumping does suggest Athena is in pain, which is why I suggested taking her into a vet. My dog for the past couple days has been refusing to jump up and when she finally does she makes a yelping and whining noise and snorts like she’s having trouble breathing.
What kind of dog can jump on a couch?
My 7 month old mini poodle chihuahua mix has never been able to jump on the couch. He can climb up and down stairs but can’t jump on any surfaces. I once witnessed him physically climb up a blanket to get onto a chair, like humans would rock climb.
Why does my dog not jump up the stairs?
The only reason I say it could be that is that I went through it with my own dog a couple of years ago, with the initial symptoms being stiffness, reluctance to jump etc… The good news is, is that if it is IVDD (and it probably isn’t), then you’ve spotted it early. In which case, your dog will likely make a complete recovery.

Why does my dog jump on the bed?
This just happened to my dog, except it was her jumping on the bed. She is panting, and has her tail between her legs. She eats and potties no problem. Except when she has to poop, it’s like she is having difficulty squatting. She can sit, stand and lay down. But she is in pain and needs to be taken out to pee every so often.
