Hello,
Our CAG is about 2 years old and has a nasty habit of screaming (very high pitched screams that cause our ears to ring for more than several minutes, which probably isnt very good for us).
This has been an ongoing issue since we have gotten him, and we arent sure of how to make him stop (or at least lessen the amount of times he does it).
He's very bright (speaks all the time, picks up sounds, words, and sentences very quickly) he even answers questions (ones that arent even directed to him, and completely throw us off guard when he does it with the right answer). He's healthy, has great food, plenty of toys that we change up frequently, and basically is never really alone (since I work from home and he sees and interacts/plays with me all the time).
The screaming issue .... they arent related to anything we can determine (like boredom, illness, happiness, etc). He just does it at completely random times and doesnt stop for good duration of time. The screams also are different than his happy/excited/playful screams. They are more intense and seem to be done on purpose. We've been ignoring the screams (so not to link it to a action-response type behavior) but its getting to a point where its getting ridiculous.
Has anyone else experienced this type of behavior? Or found a solution we can try?
