Jamie chases her tail constantly...she does it as an anxiety-relieving behavior when she gets stressed. She'll do it for 10, 15, 20 minutes at a time, during which time anything in her way is fair game to get knocked over. She's taken out coffee tables, chairs, moved the couch across the room, run over the other dogs or cats in the household, and took DH down at the knees once. She goes deaf while chasing her tail, so our options are to physically stop her or let it play out. The Xanax that she takes for her SA doesn't seem to help with this anxiety behavior though...the other two dogs are far too normal to chase their tails like she does.
