Wow..once again, some very helpful insight. I am going to start working a little more with his obedience as he loves to do that when it involves getting treats..lol..I want him to learn that we will play when it is play time and that he needs to settle when it is time to do that too. He does look out the window of our sliding door onto the street when he wants to, however our street is pretty quiet most of the time and he gets bored doing that.
He also is not much of a chewer so even his bully sticks (which seems to be the only thing he will chew on) bore him sometimes and he will go days without touching them when I offer them. (except to bump them out of my hand. ) I feel bad for him as we have 4 cats who he tries to play with but they only will run past him once or twice to engage him and then jump up on something he can't reach teasing him. I think the problem with them is that when he runs with them, he bumps them with is nose and barks at them.
I worry that he will become too dependent on my to keep him amused as I am currently unemployed however will be looking to go back to work very soon. |
