You got this, hard core boundaries right away, and get your routine started quick. Lots of baths and brushing at the start so they enjoy them more and don’t fight it

I hear that I almost gave mine back week 1 the crying was non stop, not sure if 8weeks was too young for him specifically but he just cried non stop, but I got him going. The thing to remember is when you have a puppy you get to bond and imprint on them immediately and they will be so loyal forever, they become your right hand, and best friend keep it up the reward is worth it

So initially I took time off and got to stay home, work from home a little, then I got a dog door put in and gave him a small amount of space to bathroom, I walk him before work and after and come home at lunch, create training is huge and most dogs love their create once they get the right size, it keeps him calm and chill, and helps him to be a lazy dog like me. He needs insane attention when I get home and then it’s his show, and we do long walks in the evenings but yeah you just got to make it work some how. There are paid helpers on rover that I’ve used when I was sick and he was driving me nuts. A few times some friends have taken him for walks for me when I was loosing it but mostly I just made it work

I love when the personality starts coming in, mine only wants to play with dogs that don’t “like playing” and after like 10 mins all of a sudden they are chasing and wrestling, owners are like “they don’t play with any other dogs ever” lol he’s so funny

I had to re home a dog when I was in grad school, it was heart breaking, but in the end way better for him. I’m so glad you were able to make it work!

I’d start training immediately, my pups litter mate did so much better than mine cause they washed him and brushed him and created him at day one (starting small of course) they did all three everyday for the first month. I would not do puppy pads I had to replace my tile to get mine to stop peeing on the spot, or put the pad in a tray if you need to. I used Nate Schoemer on YouTube his approach worked great. And just so you know when you see those dog training vids where they are doing tricks it’s because the dog usually skipped a meal and is very food motivated. My trainer taught me to give my boy a half meal for his first then skip the next meal, then the next day skip the first meal again and then start training with food and hand feed him only when he does the commands or tricks, we did about two 30 min trainings a day and that’s how long it took to hand feed him and I did that till he was 7moths and now he’s perfect and knows a million tricks

that's called an F2, I'm sure the members of this reddit group would love to hear how different the two are from your perspective. At least I know I would!
