Does having an 18 month labrador who seems to think he's a cat count?
lol. i grew up with a golden/cocker spaniel mutt. great dog, but she thought she was a cat, too. in a different way than yours. i mean, puppies are affectionate, love to get attention, and will poke and prod you until you pet them (or until they realize it's hopeless and give up and lie down at your feet). that's normal.
amber, otoh, had some odd reactions. whenever she saw a dog, she'd wag her tail and act all friendly... until that dog came within striking distance. then, all of a sudden, she was all teeth and claws. had to do whatever we could to hold her back.
otoh, the people across the street had a cat. for no reason we could fathom, amber habitually shared her dinner with the cat. mom had to start giving her extra food so that she'd get enough.
i'm intrigued by this dog of yours that could climb trees. very interesting.
of course, the thing i find most interesting in all this is the discovery that labrat owns a lab.
