Ok so sleep deprivation and frustration are setting in at the moment (its like having a new baby), and although I love my 9 week old puppy today I would trade him to the gypsies for magic beans. Few major issues well one big one really the others are just side effects of it. I have a 6 month old mini Dachshund (Abby) and we just got this new basset puppy (Monty). House training is going about as well as one would expect with a 9 week old although my husband seems to have this idea that a 9 week old can be malicious and pee in the house when he doesn’t get the attention he wants (insert eye roll here) any how that’s not my issue.
Monty the last couple days has been playing really rough with Abby at first they were both nipping but as soon as anyone squeaked the other let go, now he’s not letting her go, and it seems like he’s constantly at her. This morning when I let them both out of their crates and into the back yard he wouldn’t let her poop, any time she tried he kept charging at her and trying to play, eventually she quit trying and even when she was out there on her own she didnt (its like she was telling me the moment has passed momma, come back later). And this morning when I fed them he kept bugging her when she was at the food bowl. It’s like he’s trying to bully her and I’m not sure how to nip this in the bud.
