 My pet whispers on two legs

    He was always vocal, but he never ¡°Whispered¡±. It took a while for me to just get over how he looks, which it turns out he doesn''t look all that strange, but he doesn¡¯t look like the others most of the time. He has three legs; the others have four and he doesn¡¯t have hair. He¡¯s been following me a lot more recently too. Staying in the same rooms I¡¯m in, leaving when I leave. And his footsteps have gotten heavier. You can tell where he is in the whole house just by listening.


    He¡¯s been acting differently for a while too, and smells different, even before we went to the vet. When we went, I couldn¡¯t really understand what the doctor was saying, the words were new to me, and I just wanted to get out of there. I wasn¡¯t understanding any of it. Which sounds like an off-topic thing, but I feel like I¡¯ve been getting dumber, like simple things are getting more complex. But while we were there you could tell he wasn¡¯t doing good; he looked rough. And since then, it seems he¡¯s been getting worse. Other pets have been avoiding him. They just stop and stare at him. He¡¯s been avoiding other people if he can, which is not like him at all. He¡¯s fine being near me, but I¡¯d really like for him to just give me some space. He¡¯s starting to make me paranoid.


    He walks around the house faster, he started slamming doors, and he barks violently. It¡¯s only one-off barks too, it¡¯s not like a car ran by or anything. He doesn¡¯t eat in his bowl anymore. He¡¯s been eating less too. I used to watch him eat all the time, because sometimes he¡¯d drop some of his food and once it¡¯s on the ground he doesn¡¯t touch it. That was the weirdest thing to me too, not only does he walk on two legs, which I just chalked up to him having only three, but he doesn¡¯t eat all his food when he gets any. So naturally if he drops any, I¡¯ll eat it for him.

    He started crying a lot recently, and I don¡¯t mean like whimpering. He¡¯s almost crying like a person. And if I try to make him feel better, he hits me. So now I''m scared to get close to him, and I¡¯d rather live somewhere else. We don¡¯t play at all anymore, sometimes we go outside, but not as much anymore when people started watching. He¡¯s been making me wear his collar. And he¡¯s been using his leash on me, so I¡¯d like to get this collar off. It still has his scent on it, and I know he''ll use that to his advantage when he comes looking for me when I escape. I just need him to take me outside one more time and I¡¯m gone. This isn¡¯t my pet. My pet never knew how to lock the door. But for now, he just walks around the house and whispers.


    I¡¯m not allowed on the computer anymore, but he¡¯s taking a shower right now and I saw this as my only chance to ask for help. Does anyone know if this is typical dog behavior? I feel like he¡¯s turning me into his pet, and I don''t know what to do.
