Let him run, dig, hunt, he's a dog, not a doll lol, let him do all the fun stuff dogs do, it's the breed.
I adopted Cody when he was 2.5 y/o, he was a city boy, never off leash .He is now 4 y/o and lives in the country. Last summer was the first time ever he was off leash, he ran in the yard like a little Grey Hound and I can swear I heard him singing "Born Free" lol. Even tho Cody is 4 y/o, if it wiggles, crawls, flutters, he's on it, then in the mouth. I am constantly going after him if I see his nose to the ground sniffing. Take him out, socialize him with ppl and places like stores, let him play and roll in the grass, have fun with him.

Forgot to add, Cody is neutered he does not lift his leg, what I have found out is, if I walk him near a fence, wall or bush that another dog has peed on he WILL let his leg, so on walks I star far away from this.
