We leave our keys, on a long key ring, in the door, Cosmo jingles them when he wants to go out, he hits them either with his nose or with his paw...if he's desperate he hits them a lot!!!
Thing is, he will do it if he thiks he's not getting enough attention, or he fancies a treat (he gets a reward when he comes in from spending to reinforce recall etc and cos I love him
) ..so he'll rattle keys,go out, look at you, then do a zoomie back in and sit beautifully waiting for his treat as I wander in mumbling.He doesn't get one in that situation!
Our FCR pup that we walked used to do exactly the same....
