Being Run Ragged

[chubbypup]

Hi All

As I mentioned in a previous post Metz has been a little aggressive of late. I have tried several suggestions from various friends etc. The one that seems to have made a big difference was the suggestion that he was frustrated because he wasnt burning off enough energy. He has always been walked first thing in the morning and then taken to the local park for a 1-2 hours in the evening. He also has alot of play in the house. We have increased his playtime and reduce 'our time'. Although he is alot less aggressive we are all worn out from all this play except Metz. Do Cairns carry on this high energy lifestyle throughout or do they tend to calm down a little after a couple of years? (I am not complaining as all this exercise is not just benefiting Metz)

Yes, I think they eventually mellow out. My Winnie started to slow down when she turned 10!
