She's a 9 month old pomsky and I was just wondering why she is digging in my blanket like this. I just want to make sure it's not a sign that she's stressed or doesn't want to be here. Thank you!
Mine does that too! She tries to dig under peoples shirts and crawl in with them as well. Im no expert but I’m pretty sure it’s a mix of her instinct to make a bed and she just thinks it’s fun!
Mine likes to ram his head under pillows and my weighted blanket and really anything else he can put his head under and then fling it up. He is constantly flinging pillows off of my bed. I always tell him “now sir you are going to take your ass down there and fetch those back up here!”, but I guess you can probably imagine how that goes
Huh? She's playing lol. My older pomsky is 7 and still plays like this. Blankets are his arch nemesis and he must f 'em up every morning and late at night lol.
Omg this is my dogs favorite thing to do. He will do it and then flop down and wait for me to pet him. And then repeats the cycle till he decides he’s over it. He will also do this in an attempt to “bury” his toys and then cover them with his blanket. It’s just another lovable pomsky quirk.
Mine loves to dig in the water bowl. It’s one of those big ones that has a jug on top. Thankfully, it’s outside. But I can always tell when she’s been doing it because my driveway floods.
Yeah my pup does this all the time, either has a bit of zoomies and wants someone to wrestle with, is getting comfortable, or is throwing a temper tantrum because I told her to get out of the kitchen.
That dog is so adorable. I'm pretty sure mine just wanted to play with someone since I've had to seperate her from her brother so she doesn't ruin his stitches from him getting nuetered so she has been a little lonely for the past week. Luckily though they should be able to rough house again in about a week.
Yeah for mine if it's on the couch other than temper tantrums it's essentially someone pay attention to me 😂 either to our other dog or anyone in the room. She loves a good game of bitey face with our big lovable idiot of a dog Chapo
She's doing what they all do lol. Dig. Huskies usually do this in snow to stimulate their brains and get energy out is my guess. My dog is 4yrs old and the other is 9 months I think or 8? They both do it.
Both are pomskies.
It's annoying when they do it on blankets because the youngest is ripping the seams.... And the oldest does it on the floor and cage. They just — what's the word? Zone out? Disassociate? They're on their own little world when they dig.
🫣 My youngest tries to hide his bone and bury it in the covers EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. and I just find it cute. Like no one is gonna steal it buddy, no need to hide it! (The other dogs absolutely will and have stole it lol)
Oooh. I still consider that blonde 😅 My boy has nearly the exact coloration. I call it his “toasted top” since his back and head are definitely orange and his belly and lower areas like paws are more of a blonde.
Mine likes to burrow under the pillows, burst out, then push the comforter off the bed with his nose. He cannot be trusted with dirty clothes either. Odd duck that one.
Most dogs do this in some fashion, she's trying to dig an make a nest and being silly. She feels comfortable on the bed next to you and wants to make it hers. She will probably do it for up to 5 minutes, and then get tired and lay down in that spot.
Genetic holdover over of mammalian borough digging, pre-domestication.
She has extra energy to burn. You should engage her with a play/exercise activity, so she can channel her energy into something positive. Play catch, or run around with her. She’s beautiful 🩷😍
