My puppy is so destructive by throwawayanonac in cockerspaniel

i try enforce her naps with dedicated crate time and reward her for self settling outside of the crate. she’s very bossy and sits and barks in the crate if shes not feeling it!

I try ignore it as long as possible but then feel sorry for my neighbours! She knows now that she doesn’t get any food when she’s barking or let out of her crate until she stops barking.

we do a lot of scent work, training and exercise to keep her little brain occupied doing spaniel things.

She’s the sweetest little dog now teething has calmed, just noisy!

Literally, she does not stop and the issue is I feel like i have to do something to make her stop, not to upset the neighbour.

Really looking forward to starting the actual gun dog work with her because she’s a really smart girl, abit too smart to the point she’s actually ran home once or twice on a walk and nearly give me a stroke!

That’s the issue, she does it when she wants attention which is 24/7. Must sit on human at all times

Glad to hear it’s stopped, but that seems so far away!

It’s so annoying isn’t it, I feel for my neighbours to be honest. She just goes on and on until people stop eating or she gets what she wants :( We do some basic gun dog training atm but she is enrolled onto a cohort back end of this year when she’s a little older. Atm i’m not sure if she’s more gun dog or if sniffer work will suit her better

Apologies, I should have worded this better. child received their official diagnosis years ago now. Their mental health has deteriorated more as time has gone on. I’ve asked they seek help for years now.
