Unless you just gave birth apparently. I guess its common for new mothers to get extremely agitated by their beloved dogs for any noise or sound they make

...It's common for new mothers to get extremely agitated at... Everything

You would be too, caring for a new born is fucking exhausting.

Hell, just giving birth in and of itself is enough to kick off survival instincts of "Scare everything the fuck off before it can even try me right now". It's incredibly taxing on the body, both in energy used and physical damage.

Then you're just kinda thrown into keeping this screaming sack of potatoes that was just violently removed from your body alive quite quickly.

Ohh yeah been there, done that.

My first definitely had a "Wait. I can just leave? Who's going to help me take care of it".

It's often one way or the other. "Get away from me!", or "more babies!" Pregnancy hormones do a complete number on the mother. That's before having a parasite attached to you near 24/7, demanding your attention, day or night!

Interestingly, her pheromones can do a similar job on any males around her (both human and dog). That was an interesting surprise.
