He seems to do very well according to your description of him. Lot's of dogs like to run. I have a feeling Gracie would love to run if I ever gave her the chance. He may not have been with you long enough to know this is his forever home. Many of these little dogs get passed from home to home. If his history was like that he may not be sure what comes next. It could also be that he needs some exercise and needs that running activity. That is where the indoor fetch can help.
I know kids don't always understand our attachment to our pets but they have to understand that our pets live with us while most times our adult kids do not. Our pets become our new family members and we are loyal to them. Since he is house trained maybe consider taking him on a trip with you. You could find a near by place where he can potty. |
