Guest Anonymous Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 Im the proud owner of two gorgeous bullies,the youngest of which is 12 weeks old,a hyperactive bundle of joy! She does something which I've never seen abother dog do before (maybe one of you have).But whenever I scratch her bum,where the tail joins her body(every bully I come across seems to love this!My neighbours pit actually sits against a tree to do it herself)she defleas me. I admit I found it cute at the beginnig,so I inanvertedly encouraged it,but I dont think its a bad characteristic,just odd. Quote
kendalyn Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 I'm not sure I understand your question. What do you mean when you say she defleas you? Quote
imported_Kat Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 err same Kendalyn. Don't understand the defleas thing! :confused1: Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 If it's what DL suspects, the nibbling, cuz I have no idea what Defleas means either, but maybe it tickles her instead of a pleasure?? I know Coal's got some spots on his back that he just LOVES to be scratched, but others that tickles and he doesn't much like it :lol: Quote
imported_Leanne Posted December 29, 2003 Posted December 29, 2003 I think it means chews or scratches! Quote
Holz_Boomer Posted January 1, 2004 Posted January 1, 2004 im not really sure what she means either :-? Quote
courtnek Posted January 1, 2004 Posted January 1, 2004 I'm not sure either....I visualized nibbling, but have never actually seen a dog deflea another. Monkey's debug each other all the time, but they have opposable thumbs and can grab them. Wanna help us out with this? we're kinda confused.... :lol: :lol: Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 DE-FLEA-S you know when they click thir teeth ogether really fast, and nibble ony our arm when you scratch them a way that feels really good. just the front teeth between the canines, when Drey does it it HURTS!!! I made the mistake of wearing shorts and he got my thigh, I YELPED! Deja does it when she is laying in my lap on her back and im scratching her chest she really likes that. Quote
courtnek Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 :oops: :oops: :oops: I thought she meant DE-Flea, like remove fleas.... thanks RNP - that's a term I was not familiar with. Quote
Guest Anonymous Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 yes. court, that exactly what it means. you know how a dog will groom or preen you by nibbling really really fast, and their jaw just vibrates. like a doing is tryint to de(flea) you. Quote
courtnek Posted January 2, 2004 Posted January 2, 2004 :D Freebee does that, I just never heard it called defleaing before I guess... I didnt know dogs would deflea each other....although I've seen footage of wolves preening, I guess I never thoguht they were removing fleas... :wink: Quote
