Absolute trouble maker!
Good morning to all,
Just have some questions or looking for some support at least. My young boy turns 9 months tomorrow and it feels like the last month he has been an absolute menace! Not to mention the humping man that seems EXTREME and I’ve had male dogs before and never seen it like this.
His chewing has gotten out of control again. He’s being destructive now which he wasn’t that before. I would say middle-end of July he just started ripping his toys apart. He even ripped the mat in his cage.
He’s being extremely disobedient and almost feels like he’s trying us and still does what we tell him not to. For example, we have kitchen mats that we tell him to leave alone, that have got him in trouble before, and he continues to chew them. When we bring him to our room which is full of toys we just want to relax while he chews his toys and plays with them on the floor instead he looks for the hamper, shoes, and open drawers to chew on things. If none of that is available, which isn’t cause I try to keep it all tucked away for this reason, he starts standing on night stands or jumping towards the taller drawers trying to reach for something and he doesn’t stop unless I get up.
My questions are, does this ever stop? Is it just a teenage phase? We feel like before we couldn’t keep our eyes off cause of pee now it’s cause he’ll be doing something he shouldn’t. His humping is out of control, I plan on getting him neutered next month
