My previous post indicated my changes had slowed so I wasn’t really expecting much else dramatic to change in me, but I was wrong. Nothing completely new, but it seems earlier changes are becoming much, much stronger. Less like I’m acting like a dog or wolf, and more like I’m starting to take on the thought processes of a canine.

I now have great concern about territory, I recognize it and have a strong need to mark it with my scent. I’m conscious of where dogs pee and really want to pee there too. However, my modesty and common sense are still human and have been unable to mark my territory thanks to roommates and neighbors making it very hard. I’m looking for the perfect opportunity to be able to leave my mark in my lawn, but so far nothing. Occasionally, when I’m out side and need to pee I feel like I’m about to start going right there, but I always hold it in.

My panting is coming at logical times more and more, like when I’m hot or out of breath because of physical activity. I’m also increasingly becoming more comfortable laying curled up or on my side like a dog. I still every once and a while wake up like that. I’m growling more often as well.
