I feel your pain, believe me. I thought I was going to get by without the destructive puppy biting when I got my last German Shepherd as a young adult, but it was worse: He bit people, including me.
But he's much nicer now and he's become the most popular subject of many of my blog's posts. I suspect your your adorable pup will have a similar following before too long.
Just keep him away from Upton Sinclair...socialism is bad for puppies. :-)
My daughter is hocking me for a dog. So far I've said "no". I'm printing out this post and waving it my wife's face every time she wavers...
Good lord! I'm sending you a case of greenies and milk bones. That should keep puppy busy.
Too funny.
The only reason our Lab, Luc, did not destroy is because I was home most of the day since I am retired. However, we put up three temporary fences -- one around the air conditioner, another one around the telephone connection attached to the house, and around the peach tree (peach pits are poisonous). He never saw a room outside of the living area until he was about 18 months to 2 years old. All doors were closed to him. We have a crate off the living area for sleeping. Luc is four now and most the time he sleeps on our bed. Every once in a while, he prefers his crate.
This too will pass. :D But, I must admit your puppy sounds like he went above and beyond what most puppies do. I am sure, though, when he turns those eyes on you, you melt.
Life will be so much easier when Puppy's finished teething.
(But I'd keep my shoes and laundry basket locked up if I were you!)
I am the victim of the chewed up Joshua Chamberlain biography "Concieved in Liberty."
The following is from a passage about the 20th Maine's action against the 15th Alabama at Little Round Top during the Battle of Gettysburg. " ha be lain eard th op n. T e cannon de sur ri d his Mai e men, who ex ect a Confed at attack one their ight."
