I feel so bad when I leave the house, I usually get him minded by my mum. All he does is sit and watch the window to I return, and doesn't touch any of his toys or eat anything. everything is just how you leave it.

And if I'm watching TV, he like stares at you. And cries, so I think he needs the toilet, but after he's gone, he does it again, and just wants to play all the time.

I probably give him too much attention and spoil him. So he deff gets his way.

I love him so much but really would like him to be a bit more independent.
Like you, I have a parent to watch my boys while I'm gone. The boys spend most of their time either waiting at the gate for me or in their beds. Don't worry, this is what dogs do. They wait for the big things like walks, playtime, meals, whatever they like.

When I'm home, my boys will follow me everywhere and try to entice me to play a lot. Before Max turned 2, he was like Jasper and didn't want to let me watch tv or do things on the computer.

My boys are now 3 and 4 years old and they will go off on their own in the house more, but they always keep on eye on me so that don't miss anything exciting.
