2nd attempt at being alone for a few hours, wish him luck!
Hi all,
So I'm on the late shift today and my o/ h gets home around 6, this means wer having our second go at leaving him for over 3 hours ( 4 hours in total) he can be left for 2-3hours alone with no issues and he's fine after a long run before I leave, he shouldn't need out again till about half 6. Last time we left him for that long though he peed and pooed in the house, was a terror when my o/ h got home for about 30 mins! We've been working possible separation anxiety issues and that seems to be slowly improving, just worried my wee guy is gonna have a repeat performance

Yesssssss!!! He was fine!! Added bonus, Scott had to go to his parents for a while tonight so the wee fella was really tested ( although Scott had him out and run ragged for an hour before) he was alone again for a further 2 hours and was fine, as boart would say, Great Success!!!!

I'm sooooo proud of him!! Stuffed kong eh? So what do you guys use for stuffing then? I just made a mish mash of his food, cheese, bit of mash and a hidden bit of chew at the bottom as a prize! Was making another one up just now for tomorrow and he was going nuts!!

Great to hear Kellie, yes anything soft or treats s fine for the kong.
You could also freeze it as it will take longer for him to destruct!
Well done Nico
