My puppy seems to have a "mad 20 mins" at the moment, he'll go absolutely mental. Zooming from one end of the house to the other, biting everything in site (mainly my clothes!). Feels like there's NOTHING I can do to calm him down in those 20 mins. Last night he bit a hole through my dressing gown in one of his mad 20 mins, so I picked him up and placed him behind the stair gate so he knew playtime was over. He just barked continually
I really struggle when he's having these moments as I can't get anything done! If I try to stand up he'll just bite my feet/slippers/trousers. If I try to sit on the sofa he'll continually jump at me wanting to bite my clothes, it's so hard.
I'm really holding on to the fact that everyone is telling me it does get easier. I'm finding it so hard to cope with. He's an absolute diamond if we need to leave him. I have a puppycam and I keep an eye on him but he's so good, he just plays in his bed or sleeps. It's just these really difficult moments I'm struggling with. I can't help wonder what I'm doing wrong!
We're still going 20 steps back with toilet training, like this morning, I took him on a walk, as soon as we got home we went straight in the garden. Nothing. Yet he's indoors for 10 mins and been for a number 2 in my dining room
He also growled at me both last night and this morning when I tried to pick him up. Both times he was on the sofa, I was leaving the room so wanted him down off the sofa (I don't like leaving him in the living room on his own) so I wanted to pick him up and place him in the dining room in his bed whilst I got on with something in the kitchen. He really growled as I tried to pick him up
What am I doing wrong!
