No I haven't done that. It surprises me and my 1st reaction in both cases was to say FEEBEE in a low gruff voice and that is my punishment tone with her and she knows. I have NEVER hit her or anything and when I do that she beats feet to her crate and don't move till I call her out. We got her when she was 6 mos old. I got her from my friend who had her tied out all day and the minuet she came in she was put in her kennel. She couldn't put up with her hyperness (which is a trait of Dals) and how she shed. So I convinced her to give her to me. And they had her for 3 mos maybe. They got her from his boss (my friends hubby). They got rid of her for the same reason her activity level. They worked all day and they felt guilty for leaving her all alone all day. My friend is a stay-at-home mom (as I am) and runs a home daycare.
But as for her doing it out of fear, I may be wrong, but she is the one who goes up to be pet. I'm thinking it may be a dominace thing. But yeah I will get ahold of the vet and see what he thinks. Thanks Alot
