My puppy did so well the first 2 months we had him, we were seeing real progress and we had such a good time with trainers.
Recently he turned 17weeks and he developed such a strong separation anxiety that I cant leave him in his crate during the day anymore, my partner and I cant really leave in front of him, im really struggling at work to leave him on his own too…
And I know the deal of rewarding quiet time, giving him something to do, making sure he exercise.. But im lost and fried.
Its been a few days of him crazy coming at me for bitting, crazy running around the sofa scratching, crazy humping my colleagues and crazy barking.
Nothing changed, everything is supposedly as calm and as controlled as we ever had it so I am….fried. We went to the vet and he is really healthy and yeah we dont understand why he cant settle no more.
I know theyre supposed to go through fear stages and adolescence but I wasnt expecting it to get suddenly this hard…
