We have a 7mo Doberman mix. She's been with us about 2 months now.
After she settled in a bit she has become a really well behaved dog. She's super smart, and has taken to training faster than we expected.
Her favorite thing had become our nightly routine of going to bed and letting her lay with us for an hour while we watch TV before sleep, then she'd go outside for the last time and then sleep in her crate.
ALL OF A SUDDEN
She starts tucking her tail and leaving the room. We figured out it happens any time we use our phone flashlight.
Now she's even leaving rooms where we turn on lamps or TVs.
She doesn't show any light sensitivity or pain. She still likes to go on walks and plays, eats, and poops normally. But now she won't just hang out with us.
If we go to bed, she just goes to her crate. If we both sit in the living room, she goes to her crate.
She'll come in the bedroom in the morning to wake up my wife or me depending on who's up first. She'll do her training and play. But the first lamp that gets turned on ruins it for the rest of the day.
No idea what to do. It's been like 3-4 days and no improvement/change.
