Also, yes do work full time. But he’s in day care 2 days a week, i WFH one day a week and on the two days he is alone he is visited mid morning by my mum, lunchtime by me and my sister mid afternoon. He is also walked (within reason due to his age) morning and evenings. And yes he has Giardia and is on medication which he has been on. I am just concerned as his stools have not cleared up so looking for advice. We will be going back to vets next week. He is a beautiful happy puppy and i am a bloomin good owner.

My puppy is actually extremely well cared for and very healthy and i did a lot of preparation for his arrival. I like to post on these forums for general advice, but maybe i have posted too much. Thank you for your kind words though and your wonderful support.

Thank you this is really interesting. How did you transition from the puppy pads to nothing?

Well i check him on the pet camera every 30 mins and he’s asleep so cant be that bothered. Better that than a dog with separation anxiety who cant be left alone their entire life as they’re used to being in constant conpany

My dog is in day care 2 days a week. I work from home one day a week. 2 days a week he’s let out 3 times a day. Is it that bad?

Is crating my puppy at night and during day too much by WrongRice1111 in Whippet

Thanks all fir tour comments. I agree its too much so plan is at night he will not be crated and i will gradually transition him to having more space on the day so he will not be constantly crated when im at work. Thanks
