Yorkiedaze, as per my original post, Samson is already in a bathroom with a baby gate, all of his toys, a bed and a bowl of water. We do not deny him water during the day, just at night (after 8pm or so, after we pick the water dish up). By the morning he is so thirsty, he drinks a ton and has no room for food.
We've been feeding him Science Diet Small Bites food for meals; he gets puppy milkbones and the soft BilJacks (LilJacks???) for treats. We don't feed him a ton of treats, just when he goes to the bathroom outside, we need him to go in his crate or when we are teaching him "sit."
YorkieMother, doggie day care would be way expensive and I'm not sure about having a dog walker. Maybe something to look into. Thanks!! |
