Hi All,
It's been a while since I have posted, but I could use your thoughts!
My husband and I have bought a house with a fenced in backyard and a gunite pool for our little bear. Lukin is an active teenager (10 months next week) with no issues so far (fingers crossed it stays that way.)
Just this evening he was completely fine until we began packing some boxes and started "decluttering". Our little boy whimpered a bit and started limping when we called him over to comfort him. He did play with his "girlfriend" (a flat coated retriever that is much faster than him) this afternoon, but has been fine until the boxes opened.
For those of you that have moved, has your Newf ever presented physical anxiety symptoms? Are we just nuts to think this is a possibility?
We will obviously monitor this and take him the vet tomorrow if it persists, but we know our little pup is quite smart and this is a huge adjustment - is he really upset/nervous/concerned? Or perhaps it's an attention grab?
Thoughts appreciated!
Lara and Bob
P.S. CharlieInNJ - Bob was driving behind you the other day on Tauton Blvd and kept wondering who had the Newfs on Board!
