[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our 2 year old goldendoodle is a joy now, but that is definitely a rough age.  She still has a "witching hour" from about 7-8 or so where she wants to play, play, play and we just want to sit on the couch and watch tv.  We do small training sessions whenever she gets nuts so that her brain gets tired out.  We also did the peanut butter stuffed kong in the evenings until she was about 1 1/2.  We bought treat mats, where you hide little treats in the folds, and other toys like that as well.

I don't think you are crating too much necessarily -- its hard to figure out during a pandemic when everyone is home a lot omore than they should be.

We have a mini goldendoodle.  He is now 6.5 years old.  He behaved similar to OP's puppy but he also slept a lot.  We were careful to put our shoes and other other things of value away.  When he was teething, he would chew on anything like the wood molding or frayed carpet.  He would also jiggle the lock on his crate at night and get out.  It was a bit maddening but in time he settled down.  He is a joy now except for an area of hardwood flooring he found and ruined with pet urine.  We will need to get the floor boards replaced and the entire room re-sanded and stained.  Puppies are a lot like babies.  It sounds like you have never had a dog or a puppy.  If you can't handle it, the puppy deserves a loving family who will see him through his puppy and adolescent phase.[/quote]
