This is Bruce. He is a nine year old JRT. He’s been growling at his own junk since he was a wee pup. Just short of the dog whisperer all other experts have no answers as to why he does what he does. He’s our special little guy.
calm down buddy…calm down | Dog Shaming

Kimberley

My JRT growls when he is happy. Maybe Bruce is just happy, happy, happy.
jaime
Give him a cookie when he doesn’t growl at his wiener

faye shepard – I’m dying and I’m crying with laughter….
Stressfactor
The owners indicate it has been checked out — with no one able to figure it out. Also, he’s been doing it for nine years. I’d think if it were something serious something else would have manifested during all those years.
Sometimes our beloved furry companions are… well…. just plain weird.
Jesyca
Sounds to me like hes got a case of Penis envy…
Tambra Galid
I used to groom a poodle that would check his penis to see if was still there after I cut his hair. Dogs are weird.

I had a dachshund/sheltie mix who, after you picked him up, rubbed his belly, basically touched him…he’d sneak a peek to make sure his stuff was still there. It was a running joke in our family.

“…growling at his own ‘junk’…” literally made me snort with laughter. In fact, I’m still giggling! Thanks!
Cuz n Mel
Woof, Woof; He only wants a mate, therefore , he’s attracting attention, hoping for results!
Derrel Thompson
sounds like a gender unhappiness issue… paint his nails and get him a pink collar , might help?
madisonpage

Becky
Just so it doesn’t escalate to biting!
Molly's Mum
Well played, Faye. well played 😀
Arlene
Maybe it’s a female dog trapped in a male dog body, anyone ever consider that?
Angie
Omg Faye, I am hysterical. Best reply ever. Thank You for the laugh
jay
my jrt mix regularly whips around and growls at her own butt. she’ll be walking down the street and suddenly, bam! butt-hate!
dogs are weird.
DogMom
Here’s a possible reason: he’s farsighted and can’t see that it’s his own wang. “What’s this snake-like attacker?” Waddya think?
Tami
BEST dog shaming EVER!
Rowan
maybe your dog is transgender.
Alex
My shar pei pit mix does the same thing. >.> i just spend an hour combing the web to see if anyone else has had the same thing happen. The only difference is that this is a new development.
