My boyfriend and I recently rescued an Anatolian Shepherd mix from a home where he was neglected. He is almost a year old and we love him so much already, but we are having some behavior issues with him and are not sure how to deal with them at his age. We have a huge yard which him and our other dog (black lab shepherd mix) can play all day in. Our Anatolian seems to chew up everything in site, even his bed. He also digs up the yard constantly, now after reading this website I see that digging is one of their characteristics but is there any way to teach him to stop? Is the chewing still a process of growing or can I teach him to stop that as well? Any tips and info I can get on how to help our little buddy learn would be greatly appreciated.
