l was the one that originally did not want Rockie. My daughter brought him who had no experience with a house pup. We had a chow but she was an outside dog. Rockie is a dog that needs lots of attenton and he whines alot. l now love Rockie to the point where people tell me he is a dog and not human. Of course his behavior is me, all me and l take full responsibility. l take very good care of him. l crated Rockie for a very short time. We decided a x pen would be a better way for his comfort while we are away or any time he needs his space and we need ours. Training will help a tremendous amount with behavior problems and consistancy is a major factor.
Rockie chewed up walls in the bathroom and kitchen untill we finaly did get the x pen which took care of that issue.
