I know, I just posted something but I'm feeling chatty/curious tonight.
So, Moosh is turning 8 months next week (time flies!) and I feel like I haven't given her as much freedom as I should.
When Molly was a growing pup we lived in a condo, so everything was on one floor and visible from every angle. She was always near us when we watched TV, slept, ate.
But, because I'm in a house now, I have kept Moosh mostly on the main floor when I'm there. I often put her in the crate when I am doing things upstairs because she still has a BIG problem chewing things (like stairs, walls and carpets) and I can't watch her all the time.
Also, I'm petrified she's going to start peeing on our beige carpets. When we are watching television she goes to the living room door every 15 minutes and, because I'm worried she has to go, I bring her downstairs every 15 minutes. Mostly she just wants to walk outside then back in again and because of it, she doesn't spend the whole evening with us. But I want her to.
Am I expecting too much? I don't know, it would be nice to have her hang out all the time...
