Yes, I told my husband no more toys with visiting dogs. I stopped taking the ball to the park with her months ago.
But after I thought about it, if she wanted to hurt the dog she fought with, she would have. The other dog was a yorkshire terrier who weighs about 5 pounds. So I guess it was a loud and scary warning.
She was spayed at 3 months of age. So still not sure why she marks. I just think she is territorial, which really is not out of the norm for most dogs anyway is it?
And people think that Greyhound and Whippets are really laid back, which they are, but they do not like most other dogs. They are a little funny about how other dogs behave. For example she would never buddy up with a golden or lab but loves pit bulls. She likes dogs that are stoic, but if they are jumpy, angry or snarling she eventually does not like them. Also the dog park and dog beach is terrifying. She refuses to play and hides behind my legs. I have seen whippets do this at dog shows as wellp-Hiding behind their handlers.
