Them teenagers!
Although we are in mid-summer here, it is overcast and chilly today and Roxy has a serious case of the crazies! On top of that, she spent most of the night in and out of her dog flap running around like a loon (good ol' teenage times!). she normally spends the morning sleeping, but so far today she has hung on her tyre; chased insects and run a marathon. Oh, and she's going through a phase of ripping up her squeeky toys to get to the stuffing and squeekers. She's just gone a bit quiet so it's time to check what she's up to.
Last night she spent over an hour playing with her favourite ball; chasing the broom and had a very brisk walk with training work.
She's off to "dog-tivities" class this weekend where we'll start with clicker training and tricks, so hopefully she will be more stimulated.
We just hope she doesn't think her baby brother's a squeeky toy when he comes home

Re: Them teenagers!
Lots of walks, mental stimulation and patience and the teenage phase passes

Plenty walks and stimulation abound! I think I have more patience than the OH I don't even mind the teenage phase as she is my first dog and I feel like I'm going through it with her!

Re: Them teenagers!
They have boundless energy sometimes, awful when the weather means you can't burn it all off on a good jaunt. Mind you they find a million other ways of 'entertaining' themselves

Re: Them teenagers!
We will, thanks! she did very well at puppy school and was completely bored with obedience classes! (Why would a staff want to sit and stay when there are so many other puppies to play with?!!?)

Re: Them teenagers!
Great picture, and to be honest, I've had the same thing with Loki today/last night. He was up at 5:30am jumping around and messing for a while. We love them though hope the dogtivity classes tire her out a bit

Re: Them teenagers!
Yes! Hope the training goes well. It does help give their minds a great workout. They can drive us all a bit bonkers sometimes...
