As she grew she got to have more freedom as she was able to handle it. Puppies are so curious and such chewers that you really need to protect them from their selves. She now has free run of the home and is very trust worthy. Too much space at a young age will result in big problems.
Thank you all for the advice! I really like the idea of a baby gate for a certain room like the bathroom. I actually might go with that method while he's still young. Thank you!
