I could really use your guys advice. I’m about ready to consider giving my puppy up because I just don’t think I can handle him anymore
The problem is he never stops going. Even if I take him to the park and throw the ball for an hour he comes home and wants to play more. You can’t just let him out of the cage and ignore him he always wants to play and if you don’t play he bites you or destroys the house.
The only thing that works is giving him soup bones non stop and that’s expensive. What ends up happening is I play with him for an hour until I’m tired of playing. Then I try to give him a bone. After the bone he comes back to play so I put him in the crate. Because of this he ends up being in the crate a lot and that’s not fair to the puppy. No matter how much I walk him or play with him it’s never enough.
I just don’t think I have the time or energy to do more. I buy treats, bones, I train him every day, I play with him every day. I just don’t have more to give. I have college, work, bills to pay, other stresses. I put up a Christmas tree and he destroys it, I just can’t take it. Every day it’s chase the cats, bark at the neighbors, go potty every night waking me up, non stop play, never relaxes. Maybe I am not a good owner..I’m just pulling my hair out
