Strange dog behavior.

I was walking my dog, he's a yorkie and cute as hell. I decided to walk into a cemetery, he wouldn't walk in there with me. He stopped at the edge, I had to pull the leash and even then he walked slow and behind me, he's usually in the front leading me.
He tried to keep his feet up as much as possible. Like he was walking on something hot.
When we walked out he was back to business as normal.
His behavior was creeping me out so we didn't stay long. Has anybody ever hear of this kind of behavior before?

That's why I won't own a strange dog.

The smell? Maybe he should be a cadaver dog.
That makes sense(get it?). He has one heck of a nose on him. We had hunting beagles when I was a kid and his nose would put theirs to shame. He's actually a yorkie-poo. Did I mention he's cute as hell.
It maybe the poodle in him then.
why?

I help cut the grass at this cemetery and was tolded there was a down tree. So I was checking it out.
Plus on my walks I could end up anywhere. Before I could drive, I would go for walks and would end up in other towns and have to call my dad to come get me.

well maybe it's time to let the dog lead[:D]
They can see ghosts.
I'm not talking supernatural here, folks. You are telegraphing something quite subtle. However not subtle enough for the dog. Joe
Animals (pets) can pick up the slightest nuance/variable in the happenstance of the human. Ol yucki-poo knows you real well, and senses a subtle change in you when you tread into the land of the dead.

I wondered that also.

Maybe a snake or a mouse or something else in the hollow under the up-tilted corner of the stone. Maybe, like someone else suggested, getting a whiff of very, very old death (the stone was old enough that weather had made it illegible). Maybe....
Allowing myself to believe in the sort of "maybe" that strays into the realm of the supernatural and other what-ifs is one of the things that keeps life a little more interesting. To some extent I pity those who, through religion or rational thinking or whatever means, believe they have it all sorted out to the extent they can't even let their imaginations go out and play once in awhile. I like the slight rush of adrenalin and the hair standing up on the back of my neck, reminding me that, deep down inside, however much I or anyone else might claim otherwise, I neither know or will ever know, or understand, or control much of what I see (and don't see) in this world.
Whazzamatter? Dog don't like bones?

Most likely he didn't like a fertilizer they were using.
That's my guess. Fertilizer, insecticide, or herbicide, in that order.
It was probably burning his feet.
However, checking graves at the family plot and vaults were only 3 feet down and you know some leak, so I wouldn't rule out the smell of death.
Those poor little dogs have to walk a million miles an hr to keep up. You'd be tired too. Thats why people carry them around.
