After eating in the morning what is your routine with your puppy? Right now I try to get her to chew something(bully stick, toy, marrow bone) till her food settles so I can get her some exercise. Lately it has been 50/50 if she actually chews on it or not and she has a lot of energy in the morning.
Enya goes out first thing and then gets breakfast. After breakfast she goes out again and then just follows me around for a while, playing with toys, chewing if she wants, then back out to potty and then quick training lesson and then her foster brother goes out to potty and they play for a while. Generally after that she takes a nap. Then out to potty and back in to do the same of following me or playing.
Maybe I'm overthinking it. I'll let her roam outside, play a little, and chew if she wants till I can burn her energy. Even after exercise when I know she's tired, she will still fight going to sleep and I end up having to crate her so she will.
1. Go outside to do business
2. Eat breakfast
3. Say goodbye to male human
4. Wait for female human to come down
5. Wait for female human to eat breakfast
6. Tug & cuddles
7. Outside to do business
8. Go into crate for the day with a chew
Our male human takes for a potty and walk around each dog seperately. Come
Back wake the female human up. lie down or play with a toy until breakfast. After breakfast another potty session with female human and then kennel for the day.
Weekends are a bit more fun
