I have a rescue dog named Bear. Bear is a 5 year old male Akita and is very good with people and kids. He is really a great dog but not the most sociable when it comes to being around other dogs.
My pet peeve with Bear is his ground scratching after he pees or leaves his scent. He was scratching so hard that his front nails were nubs and started to bleed. Bear looks like he is doing a four legged Michael Jackson moon walk.
It's a never ending battle to try and correct him from doing this. Dogs leave scents from their paws and its a way of marking their turf.
