I will be leaving my 3 month old pup for three weeks soon  . My husband will be taking care of Milo, but had to leave him for up to 9 hours a day. My question is, how do I keep Milo entertained (he doesn't seems to enjoy toys all that much, including kong and soft dolls) and will he be too lonely? and also by keeping him in a 4x4ft pen inside, will that break his potty training? So far, when I am home, I have been taking him out to pee and poo. At night he crawls out of his crate (inside the pen) and pees on the 'puppy training pad'.
Any suggestions? Btw, Milo will be starting his puppy preschool when I get back. So excited!!  |
Welcome to the corgi forum! My little corgi is named Milo also! But he's a big 8 month old now. On our side, we never left him alone for 9 hours straight or even without a person at home. He has his "grandparents" with him. It is much more hard for a puppy to be left at home because he needs to go potty, play, and is very active during the day.
Can any of your family or friends dog sit? How about a dog kennel though I don't trust a lot of them. Milo was very rambunctious when he was a puppy and he needed a lot of supervision. Now that he's older, he needs less. So I would suggest he not be left alone until he's a bit older.
Good luck!
