Lamper121 239 Posted April 6, 2018 Report Share Posted April 6, 2018 Just got back from lamping, had some good runs and catches and usually my dog is sparked out on the sofa straight away after, but tonight he’s doing circuits of the living room, jumping about and generally acting totally hyper. Never seen this before, anyone’s else’s dog do this? Quote Link to post

Bobtheferret 1,258 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Sounds like his feet are stung to me. Nettles at this time of year are very sharp, mine does something similar. Quote Link to post

That’s a fair shout, my ten month old is a hard as nails in the field not bothered by snow, rain or knocks but gets home as is a right baby about stung feet! ?. The older dogs don’t seem bothered however, never really thought about until you pointed it out ginger beard! Quote Link to post
