Well here goes.
Selby is now 10 months old and is still causing mayhem, how can I get him to clam down?
he is out all day with OH so is on the go allot, when he comes home he has his tea and still wants to be on the go all the time, he never ever lays down and goes to sleep unless he is in his crate. It starts by him jumping on the settee and sitting next to me I put my hand on him to stroke him and try and calm him down by giving him a massage on his ears I as I had heard that that will calm them but not him he just trys to mouth my hand all the time, so I take my hand away and say no and fold my arms so then because i am ignoring him he starts to dig the settee
If OH trys to stop him he snarls and growls and him, if he try to get hold of his collar and lead him off the settee he tries to bit him
so I step in and get hold of him and put him in his crate for time out, he is in there for a short while and we let him out again and it starts all over again.
I really miss having a dog that I can have sit next to me and have a cuddle, he is really pushing the boundaries now as a teenager but I seen to have tried everything I have read on here so must be doing something wrong.
Yesterday we went round to friends and he got too excited so put him on his lead and put my foot on it to stop him so then he started biting the carpet. we had to put him in his crate in the end.
Please any advice
