I am waking up five and six times a night with a ten week old puppy who has an upset stomach of some kind. No parasites...just very loose stool.
She pinned my poor kitty down and the kitty did nothing but hiss. This scares me. I wanted the cat to lay down the law with her claws. I wanted the puppy to learn how frightening cats can be. Apparently, my cat is too much of a sweetheart. We have them completely separated now and will do a very slow introduction.
Her razor sharp German shepherd puppy teeth keep me from being able to snuggle her as much as I want and I’m afraid we aren’t bonding.
I didn’t expect to be this exhausted. I can’t train her the way I wanted because I’m so tired. I am basically crate training and potty training her but that is all I’m getting in.
Is this how it’s supposed to be? Is this normal puppy raising?
I’m calling a trainer tomorrow to come to the house. I wanted to know if other people feel this tired and overwhelmed too but maybe they just don’t talk about it?
