You need to put a leash on him and walk him at lest twice a day he is bored and will not stop chewing up things until
you walk off the extra energy he has putting him out side for a few minutes each day won't cut it needs lots of exercise
to get rid of all that energy every puppy and dog need long walks at lest once a day twice is better

What JC says.
He needs to burn up some of that puppy-energy every day. He will stop chewing, but until then, get him outside for long periods, that way he will sleep more while inside.
Also, buy him a dz rawhide chewy toys. BIG ones. Place them all over the house. We also have a couple beef shin bones for ours. This just reduces the chance he will chew up something of yours, but doesn't gaurranty it.
PLAY-PLAY-PLAY is all that little guy wants right now

These guys are grown now,but they did a good job of eating half the house---on the up side--oh yea they got over all that puppy stuff--when they were about 6

I agree. It's been a long time since I had a puppy, although he doesn't look like a puppy any more, he is just 10 months old. I've had dogs for years, but most of them were adoptions that were past puppy stage. Thanks for the advice.

Marley last September. He was 85 pounds around that time, I think he grew since then.

My dog and 2 cats hog the front row by my stove!! They know the most comfy spot in the house!!!

I'm gonna give a 'road test' to a 1yr old german shepard starting tomorrow. I've been dog-less for over a year, kinda thinkin it may be time to get another one.

We'll see if we get along.

Hope it works out Greg. Shepards are great dogs. Very smart, loyal and generally easy to train.

Good for you. Once you've had a dog in your life it is tough to go without.

OUTSTANDING Greg, we all gotta have someone that loves us --ROAD TEST???--holy crap my friend, it's a dog not a friggin Pierce!!! For reference--my buddies shephard. Yep, that good lookin older gentleman would be me.

That large metal tank in the photo is distracting.

So how long will it be before the dog decides if you can be trained or not?!?!

About the same amount of time for the dog to decide if Greg is worth adopting! I'm guessing the dog is going to find a new home.
We will never forget the ones who are now gone, but we open our hearts at the sight of those hopeful eyes and wagging tails.
