But now we're trying to leaving outside of the crate for longer periods and he gets exhausted but never sleeps. He only sleeps if he's locked inside his on "mansion" a i call it.
Any tips on how to get him used to being a normal dog?
I like that he enjoys his space but I wanted him to be a normal free dog at some point. That knows where his bed and toys are without me needing to lock him in. |
Chewie loves her naps, won't leave my side if I nap. He's probably just one of those guys that is always go! Normal puppy behavior. They are such little mischievous guys! Chews was scavenging this morning, and she knows better. She found out my step stool had a piece of the bottom coming off. She was trying to be SO slick about it. she inched past my legs and then stopped. I said chewbacca WHAT are you doing. She jumped and slunk off. With a piece of rubber in her mouth!!!! I knew how she jumped the little carpet shark was up to no good! I had to command sharply for her to sit, stay, and leave it. she wasn't happy. Good luck, lol. I say that with all the love and affection I have. They are so fantastic.
