Please tell me this is just a phase! Archie is a year & a half old and he's obviously still very much a puppy so I definitely still expect puppy behaviors, but this past week has been insane! We take him for a walk every morning for 30-40 minutes and he's generally very content after that for much of the morning. My son & I are home with him for most of the day so he's not alone very much. This past week he is not settling at all. He's even more charged up after the walk and he's become destructive - attacking my area rugs and chewing underneath a chair in my living room. It's like he's regressed. I tried giving him more attention and playing fetch with him right after a walk, but that hasn't helped all that much. I am really hoping this is just a phase that will pass as quickly as it started because it's hard to enjoy him right now. It's just so incredibly frustrating to have him constantly running around the house & trying to chew things up. Ugh!
