If your dog senses rats, you will most likely notice some rather peculiar behavior from your pooch. Dogs do react differently depending on the nature of the dog. However, there are some common traits to look out for and this can give you an idea of whether you may have a lone rat wandering around your home or even a dreaded infestation. The behavior of your dog will also depend on the location of the rats that it can sense, smell, and hear. Some dogs react with curiosity while others are more aggressive. It often depends on any experience they may have had in the past with rats. Some dogs may simply sit and stare at the area where they sense the rats are. Some will also head tilt while staring. Your dog may start scratching and scraping at the walls or the floor. If it is outdoors, it may start digging at the floor. Some dogs will run back and forth excitedly to and from the area where they sense the rats. Other common traits include barking or whining incessantly, growling, sniffing at the area where the rats are, and refusing to leave the area even when you try to get your pooch away. You should make sure you note your dog’s body language too, as this will enable you to determine whether it senses rats in the area you are in. Your dog may sit or lie directly next to the area where it can sense the rats – you may find that trying to move your pooch becomes nigh on impossible. You may also see your dog circling the area or running back and forth because it can hear and sense the rats moving around and is following them. You will immediately be able to tell if your dog becomes fixated on a particular area as it will ignore everything else around it other than the rats that it is focusing on.
