We got our Border terrier puppy on Tuesday and on the whole has been OK however yesterday afternoon and this morning just feel so overwhelmed by it all.
She is very clingy and needs to be with me permanently when I am at home or cries like mad. Obv this isnt ideal as I need to do all sorts in the house and she is confined to the kitchen and playroom. When she starts crying I thien find she is doing loads of wees which must be stress related as she is being taken out at least 1x/hour after sleeping playing, eating etc etc so if I then crate her she cries in there but does on occasion just get into her bed to lie down - but I have to shut her into it.
Our 2 adult ( but young 2yr old) cats hate whats going on and confine themselves to upsatirs - I miss them sitting on my lap and they show no signs of accepting dog - dog in turns thinks they are amazing and wants to chase them....
On top of this dh working really long hours so fairly useless at helping although I did just take myself to bed at 9 last night and told him to deal with her.....
Aaaargh i'm just worried we've made a huge mistake even though she was much wanted..
Please give me some support - feel like i've got baby blues!
she hates the car and cries constantly.....
