Yes. I just made that term up. My 317 day old smooth coated male has, so far, failed to grow out of this disturbing pattern of incidents. Specifically, about five times per week I observe him whacking the side his head/snout into brick walls, tree trunks, interior corners (270° type) or one of my shins. This always happens immediately after he has swiveled his head nearly 180° backwards to look at something behind him while moving forward. It is when he whips his head back into nose front position that he sometimes makes contact with inanimate objects. It’s kind of odd as his vision is seemingly as keen as a hawk’s and there is no other evidence of a dyspraxic-like general lack of coordination. So far, he has not hurt himself and never utters a cry when these things happen but I can tell you from some of the shin contact incidents that that he packs a pretty good whack. In fact, I have been known to utter a surprised yelp of my own on contact. Is this a normal BC trait? Will he grow out of it? Should I be concerned?
