Re: Hyper Puppy

When you got the dog, you made a commitment. You need to make time for this dog. Rain, sleet or shine I'm out with both my dogs on a walk. I don't walk them in the morning either, but they get a 1 mile walk after work. I bundle up and get outside. Just because you have a large yard for her to run, does not mean she'll exercise herself! So many owners say "well she has a large yard to run all day in but she's still full of energy" if you were left outside in a yard, would you run laps? I doubt it.

Get her into OB classes for the next couple of years. This poor dog is bored out of her mind. And you say she knows most commands - this is not even close to TRAINING. Knowing a few commands is easy, you have to WORK HER MIND.
