My parents are the loving guardians of two beautiful cockapoos....sisters from the same litter. They never want for anything, because my father is retired and is at home to shower them with affection around the clock.
But over the past several months, the more dominant one has developed a worrying habit of guarding my parents' bed, where she sleeps. Even when the entire family is in the other room on the couch, she remains on guard duty. This is odd, because I don't know when anybody has ever tried to take the bed from her.
She also hoards her cookies and guards them. It's not uncommon for her to gather three or four cookies and just sit watch over them. Sometimes she snarls if one of us gets too close to her cookies.
Any idea what the deal is? Thanks.
