she may be bored?
Hmmm, not sure exactly what you mean. Is she playing? Or does she seem disoriented?
We had a cat once that started walking in circles, had to have him put down. The vet thought it was caused by brain damage, possibly a clot broke free from an old injury (he was a street cat, we were one of his regular caretaker stops, along with the mailman & a couple other places)
That's what I was thinking. We had a hamster at PetCo who would just sit there and run in circles ALL DAY. Turned out he had brain damage. Luckily for him though a coworked adopted him.Quote:

Obedience commands are for all dogs, big & small.If the dog is always
over excited, teach commands in a very low key voice.
My neighbor has three young Poms & they are excitable too, but they
all have to know commands. "Sit" being the most helpful. :)
thanks lizbud! i'll tell him yer advice! :)
