My Dog Obsessively Chases Lights and Reflections
Add to Favorites
In this video, Ed Frawley shares a question from the Ask Cindy database. Today's question is about a 5-year-old pointer who is a light chaser. The breeder chose to use a laser light to tire the puppies out, leading this dog to become obsessed with light reflections and shadows. Ed addresses the issue and offers advice on how to manage this problem.
