before were going to have to rehome him.
Basically, were really struggling with him.
We got him before we got pregnant with this baby, and with me being so sick with hyperemesis, we missed a lot of time in the early days to train him.
Basically, he is just so hyper. He's a collie crossed with jack russel, (not sure how that worked tbh!).
He will jump up all the time, knocks my eldest over. We can't go in the back garden with the boys cause he wont leave them alone, and if we shut him in the kitchen he will bark and scratch ALL the time were outside.
He's chewed things up in the kitchen (where he stays at night), even though he has LOTS of toys and chew things in there for him to have.
This may sound petty, but he just wont chase a ball, I really wanted a dog that would chase a ball!
He's awful for 'going' in the kitchen, even though he is fed and then let out, and let out regulary during the day he will still pee on the floor and crap.
We've said that were going to spend the next three weeks working 200% with him, and if we can't make a significant improvement then he'll have to be rehomed.
My main problem is the fact that he can't be around the boys. I have to keep hold of him all the time when he is upstairs with the boys because he will jump up and lick their faces etc.
We really don't want to rehome him, but the children take priority. Especially now we have number 3 on the way.
If he would just do as he is told and lies down when we ask him, or stops jumping up onto the couch, and leaves the kids alone pretty much then there wouldn't be a problem.
I asked Benjamin if he liked Milo, and he said 'No mummy, he jumps up on me and scares me'
I think that sums it up really doesn't it
