Fact......he's far too young to be by himself outside, for many reasons. Comfort on all levels of his being mainly.
Fact......he'll most likely die. Comfort regarding at least aspect of his being.
Fact......if he don't die he'll either be a nuisance with whining and barking(separation anxiety disorder) and/or turn out to be rather retired.
No, I correct myself. Not "retired", more rather
distant and a loner.
Would you go sleep outside by your self in a house big enough for you to run laps in? Without your mom? Dad? Or a sibling? He's just a baby, why in the world would you put him outside all by himself???!!!
If you remember my message before they were even born, leave them outside to begin with. The operative word in this message being
them.
The reason I told that big long story in post#576 is in hopes that y'all would read it and because it seems so random it would make y'all think.
The point of the story is of course Nala will stop feeding them. She's lost her direction, her purpose, her responsibility. A pack of Homo sapiens sapiens(modern human) has taken over her role. There's no need for her to be looking after them.
Dogs are pack animals just like wolves, humans, beef, buffalo, horses.
If you want a good leader he or she will need to be OK with other dogs around him or her, and not just at breeding seasons.
If you want a goo wheel dog he or she will need to be OK with....
If you want a good point dog he or she will need to.......
If you want a good swing dog he or she......
If you want a good team dog......
We all need someone/something we can relate to. It's just Nature.
Thats why I no longer ever bring my pups in the house to be pets. Now indeed to kick them out to the elements after I would make them house pets. Besides, I've found when I make pets out of my dogs they become really needy,.... ...and clingy,.... ....and hard to train to be sled dogs because they always turn around wanting me to love them up.
I don't do needy. I save that for my children and grandchildren. Yes, even though it may be hard for y'all to think of me as a doting father/grandfather because of my straight-up ways here, at home I'm just an old softy.
