Dog acting strangely affectionate/clingy/overprotective?
I have two dogs, a chihuahua and a golden retriever/chow mix. My chi is a princess- constantly just sleeping on my or my husbands legs and giving us kisses and just generally attached to one of our hips. Our retriever is very loyal and loving, but has the chow side of him, too. He's hesitant of new people, but never of us. He always wants to know what we are doing- if we go to the bathroom, he follows then goes back to wherever he was doing, or he will lay with us, but not on us, like on the floor by the couch when we are watching tv or on the foot of the bed. He's loving and loyal- but more from a distance.
The past three nights he has laid with me on the couch, literally ON me. Not my husband, just me. He has to be touching me with his paw, or laying his head right by mine. He also growls at my cat whenever he comes near me. They've been together going on three years and he never has acted this way with the cat.
I'm starting to get worried there's something wrong- he's just generally more loving, affectionate and protective of me, though he is acting the same as usual with my husband.
Any ideas?!
