I used the right sized crate and Luka always pooped in it. This continued till he was almost 8 months occasionally.
I finally started getting up even earlier than i already do and that solved the problem.
None have survived here either I figure if Luka will eat a pillowcase while I'm asleep he can't be trusted with anything cloth.
He loved his bed, I put it in his crate for one week and no issues, when I finally trusted him I came home to fluff everywhere. Huskies......
ehhh up until recently really. lol he was horrible at potty training, MOUTHY, destructive... everything you don't want in a dog. haha
now he's better but still a complete hyper lunatic. we have a lot of training ahead of us
people are always going to think what they want. Luka will always be a "wolf" to have of the people around me.
Also, sad that the owner has trained their pitbull to act that way. it's owners like that that cause more issues for the breed.
luka didn't seem to be bothered by it. i did find teeth everywhere though lol
with knox i never find teeth so i'm assuming he swallows them. he doesn't seem to care either just chews more... exp on Luka haha
the washcloth is easier to actually chew on as opposed to ice cubes. i've been giving one to Knox lately as he's teething. Luka steals it even though he's def NOT teething. haha plus you can refreeze it easily
it'll fall out! take a washcloth wet it with water and freeze it. i usually twist mine before i freeze. give it to him... it'll make his gums feel better!
his mouth is opened though. the only example i can think of is if you took drugs (like huffing) how you would inhale very quickly and sharply. lol obviously i'm overreacting. thank you for bearing with me elyse.
he doesn't exhale at all. its like hes taking 2-3 sharp breaths in and it's loud. but if we're still talking about the same thing i feel much better lol. it's only right before he goes to sleep and it's the past 2 nights.
i'd get it washed out with a shampoo which should work. i don't cut Luka's hair at all. i just brush him weekly.
i've taken Luka to a groomer once and they were nice and all but he hated every minute of it so I just suck it up and do it myself now. More comfortable for him and myself.
are you sure he's not related to Luka?
I'm so sorry she's sick Emily! I hope she feels better ASAP! You were a great mom though and got her the help she needed so props to you!
