My husband can't stand our newest addition... my Eskimo (Waffles) that my friend gave us back in Feb.
See, she's still a puppy (8 months) & I have posted about her before!
She's starting to destroy things while we are gone at work during the day. She's also peeing & pooping (all the time) on the carpet in the living room.
The compromise is: If I want to keep her, I have to keep her crated every time there is no one around to "watch" her. I just hate the thought of having to use a crate when we've both been leaving her out of it for so long. (she cries when put in there & doesn't stop)
My husband says: he has no attachment to her & he's sick to death of her destroying everything in sight! He also thinks that she's "changed" the behavior of our Lhasa (Wicket). He's been aggressive since the day I got him but, was more playful before she came along. My hubby doesn't think Wicket likes her but, I just can't or won't give her up!!!!
I've been told to try professional training but there again, hubby says: it's a waste of time & money. He thinks Waffles is too stupid & Wicket is too head-strong!:rolleyes:
Has anybody had this happen to them & what did you do?
I think she's just a pup & WILL grow out of it in time!
She's a mini. american eskimo......does anyone else have one that can tell me more about them???
