Sorry its taken me so long to re-post. Thanks for the replies, too. My biggest wish is to find Buddy a good quality food, in process. Anyway, I think the pacing thing is "i want to go outside" because hes paces in the livingroom and goes to the door and back, door and back.. then when I open the door he goes outside. He doesn't bump into anything or lay his head down. Just constantly moving. When he naps on the couch he doesn't lay down long. Sometimes I tell my husband he barely sleeps and "plots" on us all night long, lol. We got him when he was 5 months old. Ive been looking at other posts on the best dog food, but honestly they don't sell that stuff around here.
thanks again for the help!
