Yea, I realized my mistake after he was home a week. My husband actually pointed it out. He said "Alyson, why are you treating the dog like a baby? He is a dog, let him be a dog. You didn't treat any of our "big dogs" like this when they came home." And I realized, he was right. So.....we have stopped the carrying around like a baby thing, and Percy is actually adjusting much much better.

The Swishy thing is a puppy thing...it may go away.

Don't stop loving him, just don't baby him.....it's the best way for him to gain some independence and attitude.
