Just wondering if I am spending to much time with my 9 week old puppy. Is that possible?
My fear is having a dog that always needs human interaction all the time. Someone right next to it, petting, playing constantly while it's awake. My aunt has a dog like that and it's really annoying. It can't just go off and play with it's toys and sit down and relax.
Since I work at home a lot, and I'm potty training the puppy, I'm basically always with her. I have to be because of the potty training, but can that much interaction work against you as the dog gets older?
Or does spending this time with her help her develop into a confident dog that can do it's own thing sometimes?
