I asked her if she changed her schedule, if hes home alone more lately, etc... but nothing has changed lately. Hes 1 yr old so hes not teething...
I suggested a trainer and get new toys (he might be bored) and take him out on long walks in the morning so hes tired during the day. But does anyone else have this problem. it sort of happened out of nowhere according to her.
Any input or past experience would be really helpful. Thnx yorkietalk! =) |
You've make excellent suggestions to your friend, and I know you'll get great tips on here too. Do you know if he is neutered? I wonder if some of his energy could be attributed to hormonal surge at this age, if he's not neutered yet
