[quote=Anonymous]I remember a trainer once saying that 80% of behavior problems are exercise-related. We have a 6yo shepherd that still has high exercise needs, along with a 5yo. In the mornings, we've always traded off--one gets kid ready while the other takes dog on a long walk; one of us also walks him at noon and after work for 30 min each time. The other day I "skimped" on his morning walk and only gave him 30 min. My telework was constantly disrupted because of him barking at everyone that passed the house, the mail carrier, etc. On days neither of us can do his noon walk due to work schedules, he goes to doggy daycare (1-2x/wk). We aren't able to do a dog walker--he's very wary of strangers at "his" house, true to the breed. Good luck! This sounds very frustrating. Hopefully some suggestions on this thread will help.[/quote]
