Hi all,
We got Francois, our frenchie puppy, as a 16 week old puppy from a local seller, the weird thing was and it was something we didn't notice until we got him, he came from Lithuania and we live in England.
He is now 10 months old, he had all his usual troubles such as chewing and potty training, the first night we had him he cried all night but this soon stopped at nigh time at least, the second he is left alone however through the day he whines constantly.
Me and my partner both work, we spend an hour or so with him in the morning, an hour at lunch time then all night with him plus walks, the problem is when we aren't with he he just whines constantly for hours on end.
When at work one day i had decorators round, they weren't noisy so that shouldn't have upset him, but for 8 hours constantly he whined while they was round only taking stops to drink, my dad was round and vouched for this.
He also whines so much whenever I got upstairs to cook or whatever I do when I'm not with him, he has his own pen that's large enough for him with toys and his bed.
This is starting to drive us crazy now as we don't get a seconds peace unless he is right next to us, then he just wants attention as all puppies do.
We have tried feeding him a frozen kong when we leave the house to keep him entertained, if my partner does this and I stay in bed if its a day off I hear him whine for a good 30 minutes after she leaves, then he realise's nobody is in and is quiet, when he hears me get ready he will then whine straight away all the time until I go downstairs to get him out his pen, no matter how long this takes.
Does anyone have any advise, we don't know what to do now?
Thanks in advance.
