Hi all, I’m hoping for some advice. First time puppy own to a 10 week old cockapoo. We’ve had him one week. He’s loving his crate, will go in to it himself and is sleeping at night with one or two times needing out to pee. He is (mostly) using the back garden to toilet and knows to come for a reward when he does that. I’m loving him but nervous as I am clueless about what to do. He hasn’t spent any time to speak of alone so I want to build on that as from September he’s goig to have to be alone during the day (I’ll be able to pop home at lunchtime a couple times a week). How can I teach him to be ok to amuse himself for a period of time, knowing I’ll have to start small and build on that?
