My husband is retiring from full time work at the end of September. Anyways, sorry for the long intro...
I have been so concerned about Freyja the last couple of weeks. I have to leave her for 7 hours or so, and some days my son is home from university in the mid-afternoon, so that makes me feel a little better. She has been howling for long periods so the neighbour tells me.
Also, Freyja doesn't really mind my husband who will be "stay at home" puppy parent. He gets frustrated that she runs from him and poops somewhere, and he HATES picking it up. I am trying gently to show him what we are learning in obedience class but he thinks it's too much hassle. He hasn't been able to attend classes because of his work. In his defence, he is VERY LOVING to Freyja and is never harsh with her.
Has anyone any experience like this? Any advice?

I just wonder if your little one has been given too much freedom too soon? Just guessing. I don't know your situation or what you're doing...
