i am getting worried because i do not know if this is normal in all maltese or a red flag for taking my dog to the vet.
i have read all the posts pertaining to running in circles around the house, yard, etc and it seems like it is pretty common. however, i know when i see tessa doing these circles, sometimes i think she is crazy. i am almost shocked because its sudden unexplainable behavior. she does this when she is playing on her own, with toys, rolls of toilet paper, balls, etc. she also does the circles when she sees someone leaving or coming to the house. she does about 3 circles when its on her own, if i am playing with her she will run about 6. usually when i pick her up, her heart is racing and she is out of breath, but this seems justified considering she has been running so fast.
anyhow, just wondering if you guys can help. should i be concerned? she seems healthy to me but i am a little worried about this because i've never seen it before with my other dog.
thanks guys! i had so many questions today. i really appreciate all your replies.
