January 18, 2012 at 5:21 pm #75535mugateaParticipantwell I can only think of two things and one is I’m uncertain about.
The first and best reason I can think of is that this is some kind of resource guarding (possessiveness).
The other explanation (which I’m no so sure of) is that the dog associates a visitor leaving with something bad happening like the pack manager leaving with visitor.

visitor leaving dog dont do lol? what does this mean?[/quote]
Dog happy to let guest into the house but when they go to leave they growl or body block so the guest can’t leave 😉
One of our old dogs let the insurance man in the house let him take the money then when he went to leave growled and wouldn’t let him out of the door.
I would say resource guarding or they regard the guest as a new pack member and won’t let the pack split up. Fear based?
January 19, 2012 at 11:06 pm #75541MudgieMemberIs visitor leaving alone?
What are other members of household doing when visitor leaving?
Is it with this visitor or all visitors?What is the visitor being fed?
Do you know visitor’s surname?
Do you know visitor’s background :canadian: :butt: sorry couldnt resist :tease:January 20, 2012 at 4:37 pm #75542*Lassie*Member[quote author=Mudgie link=topic=16290.msg283899#msg283899 date=1327014366]
