Hi all, I have a miniature pinscher who has just started the adolescence behavior - and he is just 4.5 months old. Attention span is reduced to almost nothing; he is often restless and looking for trouble the whole time as toys are only fun for a minute; all the leash training and patience training have regressed considerably; recalls are very unpredictable; toes bitting are back after a long time. Just when we thought that “oh, this is starting to feel nice”… Bam! Advices on how to navigate those challenging times?
P.S. We are actively working on our patience in parallel, so it is a learning journey to both parties ☺️
