Welcome to
shorthairs.net
I have some videos that I wanted to share...We are blessed with a very talkative GSP.
Yes, I agree he shows (I think? Still not sure what is going on some days) some insecure behaviors...for example barking and raising hackles at friends that visit(taller guys in particular) or taking steps backwards when I approach him. He really does do a lot of communication through his posture, noises and movements! The first two videos were taken when we just get home after we have been out for a few hours - I think that we may also be guilty of getting way too excited over him when we come home. Thank you for the comments & tips. I am still always trying to learn how to deal with the day to day situations and tie them into the big picture. It's amazing to see all the changes he has gone through in the last few months since we adopted him, but it has certainly has been a continuous work in progress for the both of us. Hopefully I can also get some videos of him on the Hungarian partridges. His bird finding skills have also really improved since we got him!
