Only Eating In Private
If your dog refuses to eat when another dog or human is in the room with them, it is not because of any other reason except for the fact that they do not want to share their food with you. While humans likely don’t think about this because we don’t eat dog food, dogs don’t understand that!
Voluntarily Sleeping In His Crate
It might seem a bit odd to you that your dog is choosing to take a nap in his crate instead of on the couch or on your bed with you, but to a dog, sometimes their crate is their bedroom. It’s a place where they feel comfortable and at ease, because its where they spend their time when you are not home. It’s their own space.
