| Re: my puppy is SO hyper At that age, my dog didnt like toys.....he just liked people!!!!! Eventually he learned that fetching was fun....and tug-of-war became his all time favorite activity (again...involves people)
Rather than having him bounce and jump all over me...we did use a small stuffy which helped to redirect his attention...and used up some of his excess energy as he fearlessly followed and attacked it.
Like infants...patience is a virtue. Like infants...take some time to sit down and laff at what is going on....these dogs grow big really fast (they don't mature for a while..but they do grow big!!!)
Good luck.....when the dog is napping, read thru the puppy posts to see what other creative members have come up with for these active little ones. |
