Hi everyone,
I am a long time lurker and have learned a lot from the forum! I need your advice please on how to change my dog’s very strange behaviour.
My toy/mini poodle is from a registered CKC breeder, his name is Kiwi and recently turned 6 months. He is very sweet and a good boy most of the time, he adjusts to our schedule(wakes up the same time as us, sleeps the whole night since week 13), knows how to use dog bell to go out, doesn’t bark too much( acceptable),very friendly with human and other dogs, and he is very very gentle with his teeth, never even scratched us during play.
There is one thing really confuses us, and recently has become more serious. Every time when we bring him home from playing outside he becomes very aggressive, we usually take him out around 5 or 6pm. He is so aggressive and he turns into a different dog, I almost think there is a demon inside his head at that moment. When we reach him to take off his leash or wipe his paws, he growls and want to bite us. This is 5 times worse than the threatening/air snap when reach him for wiping tear stain, brushing etc.
When we finally unleash him and wipe his paws/take off his boots, the first thing he rushes to is the mat in the kitchen where he likes to rub his face on it. He uses the same mat and rub his face on it after bath, and after eating. When he rubs his face he also make some frustrated sound too. After he releases all those energies, he becomes normal again, he allows us to touch him, pet him.
My question is, why is my dog behaving like this? Is he stressed from playing outside? How can I help him?
Thank you very much for your advice! I attached a pic of Kiwi.
