This is a short and simple case, demonstrating the essence and affinity of a well-known remedy.
He came straight in and seemed to have no fear. He took no notice of noise and wandered happily before settling on the ground with the owners. Then, whined a bit, slightly restless like impatient.
Why are you here?
If we tell him off he barks at us. We got him from Manchester and he slept all the way home and settled fine. However when Mary went out for three hours he whined a bit and on her return he charged at her, barking madly like he was telling her off for going out, and then he started biting her and charging at her repeatedly. The more we told him to stop the worse he got. You can see the wildness’in his eyes. The next day he seemed to have tummy pain and froth at the mouth. We took him to the vet but they could find nothing wrong.
A week later we took him to a dog Christmas party and he loved it. He joined in and was very confident and played lots. The next day, if you touched him anywhere he would scream, and he also seem to do a huge growth spurt. We took him to the vets again but they could find no reason. For a few days he would jump up suddenly and scream and so we gave him Calpol. That lasted for three days. He loves all other dogs and plays madly.
He has a mind of his own and does exactly what he wants to do. If he is hungry and we don't feed him, he barks and jumps at us. We are worried, because if this violent behaviour continues – he is going to be a huge dog. If a visitor comes to the house he loves it and seeks fuss and then he settles. He wants to be involved and follows Mary everywhere.
If we ignore him he urinates on the floor. If Mary is on the phone he barks continuously. He loves outside if it is windy. His behaviour is worse if he is tired, especially his aggression.
