Puppy depression. Is this normal? - YorkieTalk.com Forums

We have had puppy's for years but we have also lived in the same house for years. Recently we sold our home and are in a mess of packing getting ready to move and both our furkids seem depressed. Not as playful as usual, sleeping a lot, they eat fine but just don't seem themselves. Is this normal? I am hoping some of you that have been through a move with yours can tell me if yours reacted this way.

We are going through the same thing and Callie has days when we are packing she will act like that for a few days.

I imagine once you are all settled and moved in your babies will be relaxed and back to normal as well.

I am packing for a trip that will not include Mina. I swear she knows that she is not going.
I hope that your babies will settle in,in your new home. The only thing I know to do is tell them that everything will be fine and give a bit more cuddle time.

My babies act like that when we are packing for vacations. We just got home from vacation on Saturday and Rylee keeps jumping into my arms every time I pick up my purse because she is afraid I will leave again.

Thanks everyone it makes me feel better knowing its a normal thing. Its going to be a new experience for us all. Moving from the country to town to a smaller house. I think they will love having a fenced in yard we can all run and play in though. Mama is such a worrier now with all the hawks and wildlife we have where we live now.
