Puppy training, need now!
So, it’s decided. Molly needs some training. She’s gotten in a really bad habit of biting our feet and growling, then the next minute she’s all lovey dovey. When she’s biting my feet I just pick her up so I can actually walk through the house. I’m scared that if she bits my shoe and she gets her tooth or something stuck and I don’t know it and keep walking then I’ll break her teeth and I don’t want to do that. I know that they are her baby teeth but still.
My friend Chriss used to work at Petsmart training doggies so I think I might enroll Molly into the puppy class so we can get some manners out of her. She is also having problems with separation anxiety. Now that I’m home all the time she’s around me all the time. If I go take a shower or go to the bathroom or go outside where she can’t get access to me she doesn’t even care about toys or food, she just sits and cries until I have the door open or I’m back in the house, or she has some sort of access to reach me she’s fine.
She does pretty good in the kennel. We don’t leave for long periods of time. I think the longest we’ve left her in there was 2 hours. She’s still so small and we’re still working on potty training and her bladder is so small that we make sure to get back home soon to take her potty. She only cries for about 5 minutes and then sleeps. Once we get home she cries and lets us know how horrible it was being left alone. She’s really quite the drama queen when it comes to that.
Anyway, I’ve been missing out on swimming because I’ve been so fatigued lately. I saw my primary care doc today and he put me on something new to help with the fatigue and took me off even more meds (YIPPEEEEE!!!!) and whatever it was that he put me on really works. I haven’t been this awake in days. Now we need to get my back fixed and I’ll be set.
