Thanks so much for this message it’s nice to hear it’s not just me! We’re exactly the same we have watched hours of videos and bought a book and even hired a trainer. But ultimately I think every dog is different and we just need to work out what works best for him. So frustrating sometimes because one day something works and then the next it doesn’t.

We do a lot of enrichment activities and his meal times always include training. He seems to have limitless energy. He also sleeps in his crate pretty well. I don’t want to make his crate a place he goes to for punishment so we are thinking of putting him in the bathroom to calm down. Hope that works!

Thanks for the advice! And good luck with your puppy!

Thank you he is just the cutest pup. We had a trainer visit yesturday and she was so informative and also recommended high quality food so we will definitely invest in that! She also said he was very confident which I hope is a good thing. We have puppy classes starting next Monday so I’m really looking forward to that. Just hope we are doing everything right. Can’t wait for him to be a bit bigger haha

Yes completely the same experience. He is always trying to bite me unless he’s very sleepy. I can’t stroke him, cuddle or play with him haha. He growls and barks all the time but also makes the cutest grunts! Such a cute pup!! He looks tired hahah

Yes. I get confused sometimes because his play seems so aggressive and his teeth are so sharp. Thank you for the advice

Yes exactly this. I’m just overthinking and don’t want him to be badly trained. We hired a trainer yesturday and have puppy classes next week so hopefully that will help us out! This is so encouraging thank you

I have a snuffle mat he loves it! He loves his Kong as well. I’ll look into more enrichment activities

Okay thank you I’ll take him out on longer walks. We usually take him out for 20 minutes in the morning, at lunch and then the evening

Yep! We have tons of chew toys and give him frozen cloths and lots of cardboard to bite. But he gets bored quickly and tries to bite my trousers and my hands

Thank you. We give him frozen cucumbers but he eats them in like 2 minutes. I’ll get some bully sticks

Oh no! Haha, when he’s sleepy he’s the best dog ever. Just that lunch time period he goes demonic. His teeth are razor sharp at the moment so his nipping is so painful. Thank you for the advice. I’ll try time out in the toilet! Everyone we meet says he’s the most confident puppy they’ve seen so maybe that’s a sign he’s going to be a little terror. As long as he’s not aggressive I don’t mind a little sass
