So yesterday was a fluke....When Angus was put in his crate this morning he started to whine. I am real sucker for whining puppies, but I stayed strong. I walked off and left him unhappy in his crate. He has to stay in for 4 hours today, and I am sure I am the one that is taking it the hardest. I am working upstairs today, where as yesterday I worked in the living room and he could still hear me. Maybe being so far away will allow him to be calm and not whine. We will see....
He slept all night last night, so that was fabulous. He did have some wild dreams. He hasn't really barked much at all, but in his dreams he was really getting something. He was barking like crazy, and of course running as fast as his stubby little legs could take him. He is getting more and more independent, which is good, but it is also a little upsetting for me. I know I should be happy that he can entertain himself, and wants to spend time away from me, but it is so nice when he wants to snuggle with me. Good news is he still has those moments, I just hope they don't all go away.
Last night he decided it would be a good idea to bite Robert as much as possible. He kept lunging at Robert's face and trying to bite him anywhere he could get. He was in rare form and boy when he gets his mind set to have something he is going to do everything he can to get it. You think he has moved on to something else, but he is just lulling you into a sense of security. Next thing you know he has snuck around to get a hold of it again. He is a smart little guy and extremely quick when he wants to be. (of course only when he wants to be, if you want him to hurry up he takes a step and rests)
Well I need to get back to work, I will check back in after we figure out how Angus really did with the 4 hours of solitary confinement.
Hence where the phrase, acts like a bulldog, come from. He will always want to snuggle with you, don't worry about that.
ReplyDeleteOne trick I learned with Nina, is to take her for a short walk before leaving and then she wouldn't whine when I left.
And they snort and snore a lot while sleeping.
He is so cute.
