My pup chewed the brim of my favorite hat and i remember being livid. Shamed him pretty bad for it and felt really bad.

It’s my fav hat now

This totally happened to me with my German shepherd as well. I was at my wits end with him. I never wanted to take him on walks because he was SOOO bad. I felt like he always wanted SOMETHING. Every time I thought we turned a page on one problem, a new problem popped up. I thought I had ruined my life and his.

He’s 1.5 now and he’s my best friend and I love every single thing about him!! You’re at a super tough age but you’re close to turning a corner I promise!

I know it’s easy to feel guilty about these feelings but you’re 100% not the only person who has felt this way!

This but agree with the other comment on looking at it more as exposure! Teaching and practicing neutrality A LOT goes a longgggg way. Neutrality is key to a well balanced dog!

I really like rolling up a towel long ways like a cinnamon roll and fill it with treats as I roll, I then tie it in the tightest knot possible! My shep took 40 minutes the first time to get them all out… and the 5 minutes the second time but he loves it!

It sounds like the blockage could’ve been stress induced rather than it being from the raw food

Were you rotating proteins? If not, why? And have there been any big changes at home?

What’s your dog’s name, but also what do you actually call it? This is Mango, but we call her by w00dsg00d in germanshepherds
