We have a 7 month old APBT who cannot settle on his own unless he is put in his crate. We go on walks every day. He is very well behaved on walks so we usually let him sniff as much as he wants, sniff mats, lick mats, frozen Kongs, bully sticks (usually only one of those 4 a day, we rotate which one we are doing which day) training sessions at home every day and we’re always playing with him. We’ve been doing tether training since he was 4 months old but he cannot sit still and will chew at the leash, anything around him, pull at it, or just bark up a storm. Usually ends up peeing on his bed (I think it’s out of spite lol). He will sometimes lay down by our front window and watch outside but other than that he’s always running around, trying to play with me or my girlfriend, chewing on toys, or digging in the couch or his bed. We do enforce naps so I believe he is getting enough sleep.
Out of ideas what to do from this step, any tips that worked for your puppy?
