    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    Well when I WFH, she just sleeps in my arms all day bar the 30-45 minute walk on my break and the rest of my lunchtime. and the toilet breaks for her in between so gets less attention then which is why I hug her. Walks are one on one as I hate using my phone, we do stop if another dog walker...

    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    Well I should of wrote, the door is closed but doesn't always "click" shut so can be pushed open if not closed properly, normally the only open door is kitchen door and that is in hall, and the hall access is via a closed living room door. In mornings I normally keep the bedroom door slightly...

    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    I posted on my other thread, yes I notice zoomies or the current incarnation of them are often when she hasn't pooped in a long time i.e hours and poops shortly after having one. In the morning, of course especially pre breakfast she is so calm and obedient, any thing I ask of her i.e sit/down...

    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    Ok so since yesterday I have been giving her food 30 minutes earlier and this has made her evening poop a little earlier too so I'd say thats a good thing as means she is more likely to want to do her wee right before bed rather than around 12.30 at night. I'm taking her to the vet tomorrow...

    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    Well I more meant how do I deal with her barking? it now seems to be every evening and she stands by the hall door and stops barking if I open it only for her to go into kitchen and want to jump up and look for food. For her toilet training I have tried being less reactive to her when I am in...

    Final puppy stages? Help and advice welcome.

    Shes 24 weeks old now, she still doesn't hold it in during the night though even when I take her out she rarely actually does a pee or poop or if she does its like a split second wee and a tiny poop like smaller than a meatball.

    An update, she calmed down a few days into the New Year, she still has her zoomies but less common like I said before.

    What I do is a few short or 1 long walk a day, sometimes (but doing it more often again) in morning using her breakfast to train her basics like sit/down, leave it and just started doing it without shoes on as she bites bare feet or feet in slippers. Lunchtime I give her dinner in a dog...

    Today after lunchtime she was a nightmare especially in evening, I believe she may be blocked up as she only did tiny little 2 about 5pm and a normal one about 7pm (which she did indoors, didn't even attempt to go to mat) and was crazy from that time until 10 minutes ago full on biting my arm...
