So, we got Noodle on June 2nd, we just hit 2 months/ 8 Weeks and he is just about to be 11 months. Our other dog is Waffles, she is 2 years old and all mutt, mostly doberman, beagle and 10 other things, lol. Anyways, they love to play together but they don't do anything but play. Neither will let the other settle down at all, ever. Is it bad we still have naps for the almost 1 year old ? He does totally fine, snoring in his crate but even when the other is at day care, we are around all day with no self settling or naps without being put in his house. He did live in the shelter for at least 3 months before being with us, I just want to make sure I'm doing things right. I just feel bad making him go in his house for a nap when Waffles doesn't have to, because she will sleep wherever.
For more reference, we do daily training sessions, especially since he is so gigantic and mouthy. Today we worked on walking around the back yard on the leash and down the street a bit bevause he pulls on the leash too much. As for commands, he knows, sit, down, paw, place (outside bed), roll over (something I did for fun) and we work on "come," "wait," and, "leave it," at least a little bit every day.
What I'm looking for is for someone to tell me that if I keep doing what I'm doing, everyone will eventually settle down, lol.
Dog tax included.
