Look at what I found her doing about a week ago, digging up my carpet! sexychartlotte74 wrote: I have an 8 month old tri-colour Chi who likes to dig in the furniture and then steal whatever he finds.... mail that slipped between the couch cushions, cat toys, etc.... He also digs in his blankets / bed whenever he settles in. Is that typical??? --- In [email protected], "liubluejeans" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Tootsie is my first Chihuahua and I'm noticing some things about her that drive me insane! Is this normal behavior or is my dog psychotic??? First, she get too excited when I come home. I love her dearly and apparently, she loves me too. She is only home alone for about 2 hours a day, one hour in the morning and one hour in the afternoon because of my husband and son's schedules. But when I come home (I'm last) at 5:30 or so, she nearly wriggles herself apart! She runs in circles, wild circles, and when I pick her up, it's like hugging a tornado. She scratches and licks me like I've been missing for months...every day. How can I calm her down? Second, in the evening, when we are all winding down, she sits on the couch and licks my ankles. I typically make her stop (because it is annoying!) but last night, I wondered, just out of curiosity, how long she would continue to lick if I didn't stop her...she licked one spot on my foot for 29 minutes. Thank goodness she's not a cat! I'd have a blister! She then stopped, got down, played with her toys for about 20 minutes then resumed her licking on my ankle. She went for another 20 minutes and I just couldn't take any more. Why does she do this? She has plenty of fresh water all the time. She gets plenty to eat and seems to enjoy her food. She get all natural treat on occassion and has plenty of chew toys. I can't imagine what deficiency she might have that she can fulfill by licking my ankle. Any thoughts? Thanks Beth
