When we crate a dog, we think of it as putting them in jail. But to a dog, a crate is their den, their safe place. Chewing can be a sign of anxiety, not just boredom. The crate may be the best answer. She does not need to be there all day. But it would not hurt to put her in there when you see her START to chew something she shouldn't. Tell her NO. Take it away and give her something she is allowed to have and put her in the crate for an hour. It is her safe place and now she has a toy.

Does she have anything to chew? They set their molars in around 6-12 months.

Goose would get excited and chomp at his bed. Kira…sometimes it’s boredom sometimes it’s excess energy it seems.

lol I had to play games with Lexi (family dog when I was in high school) cause she was a sock thief. When she’d give up the sock sometimes I’d give it back and play chase a bit more so she knew the game wasn’t up when she gave up the sock. It worked lol.

Yeah crate is never a bad thing. Crate is the den. Crate is the safe space.

I never give a young dog a bed.. maybe an old towel if they don’t chew it up.

She should. Robert wanted her, Robert should be taking full responsibility for her. They’ll get into a routine.

Yeah , the routine is granny takes care of the dog while Robert sleeps.

Well, guess they decided to stop at one of Bronwyn's favorite places..Slim Chickens. She loves chicken. I wondered about them. They didn't eat before they left.
