Maybe this should go in Obedience but... Our male Newf McGee, almost 3 years old, that we rescued almost 18 months ago has started to lay down in front of things and won't move. He blocks doors, the bottom freezer portion of the refrigerator, and the gate to the kitchen. He will also lay down when we try to put on his harness. He wants to go but can't until the harness goes on. He also won't get in or out of the car. He also either won't go outside or come back inside with the other dogs. He is on my last nerve!
My husband had ankle replacement surgery 3 weeks ago and this has disrupted our normal routine and that may be the source of his behavior but I don't know - the other dogs are taking it in stride. Sometimes I can lure him with a treat or a high sweet voice but sometimes he just won't budge! Any suggestions?
