New puppy is so tiring!?
My husband & I adopted a puppy for his birthday on August 8, 2015. I had grew up as child around adult dogs. This is our first time owning a puppy. It's so tiring. I love her so much & give never give her up. It's like having a toddler mess your house all day. They need so much attention. I spend a lot of time with her & so does husband. Potty trained is tiring. Also she gets into everything & whines when she doesn't get her way. We didn't have a crate or playpen so we put her in a box to sleep. She whined all night. My husband said just put her in the bed. So I picked her up. The problem is she hogs our pillows & like to play at night. Constantly getting up to take her to potty is tiring. I don't get as much sleep. We had an active sex life before we got our puppy. We tried putting on the floor or in the restroom & she goes crazy while trying to have sex. Last week we had sex only 5 minutes because she acted out when we weren't around. Last night my husband was put on the floor she was quiet. We finally were able to enjoy intimacy without worrying about the dog. We have sex least 3 times a week. I realized how much I miss our sex lifestyle last night. By the end she was whining to get back on the bed. She never likes to play alone & it's hard when have small things to do around the house. I'm always running after her. The whining never stops. I love her I'm just exhausted. Any tips or advice appreciated.
