I don't expect too much at all just need a little help, yeah I think your right he shakes a lot I thought he might be cold I bought him a few baby blankets. When I did the crate and let him out he just wants to play and cries when I put him back after he doesn't potty he's already learn his name well and learn drop it and bed but potty is the main issue I know he's just a baby so it will take time and good I will try that for biting once he's bigger because I have a step daughter who's small and I don't want him to bite her! Should I allow him to sleep with me or is the crate better? |
It sounds as if you unfortunately bought from a very unscrupulous breeder or one who knew no better than to try to breed just any two dogs and sell the poor puppies when just barely weaned. So sad but what's done is done and now you have a very infant dog who senses it should still be with its mother and littermates and never wants to be alone because its instincts are to be in its family right now. So, allow your little one to be crated or confined for periods of time and learn what its like to be alone knowing in he allotted time you will come to free him. But I would find a good feeding/housebreaking schedule and keep him strictly to that for the time being as dogs do so much better when they know what to expect next. And once they learn their schedule, they accommodate to it just fine. Don't let him bully you into taking him from his crate but bear in mine he's such a baby and so young, he can go hypoglycemic if he runs out of glucose so be sure he's eating every 3 - 4 hours or whatever the approved feeding schedule is for a little one so young.
Good luck with your Boss. Is it Boss? Is that his name? B - o - s - s? But spelled with dollar signs? Cute. He sounds like a cutiepie and no doubt you are in for a whale of a fun time once you are past the infancy of his life! But like any baby, it's not all fun right now, is it? lol
