Morning all!
Ok so we have a 3 month old lurcher who is just lovely. He is pretty much housetrained already, sleeps really well through the night and gets on so well with our older dog. Icing on the cake is that he also tidies our shoes up, placing them neatly in the garden so we always know where they are!
However I'm sure he's part siamese cat. He is really vocal and whines when he wants everything. Wouldn't surprise me if he started talking soon. I don't mind this as he is a baby still (despite the fact that he is growing like a weed). We know he settles if we are all out (only happens for max 30 mins at school drop off time) as we have a camera to check on them. But in the mornings when I am first up he won't let me do anything. So it's like needing attention when we are in the house but fine when we are not!
This morning I tried to go for a shower. He came up and cried outside the door so I gave up. Tried to go to the toilet, he came up, I had to go so brought him into the bathroom with me so he then cried to go out.
I would leave him but he is so loud and there are still people sleeping and I am up at 6am. They way our house is designed, if I put up a stairgate the sound would funnel up the stairs anyway.
Prepared to be patient and adapt while we resolve this but I don't really know where to start with this one!
