Feeling kind of sick of my dog. - Lemmy.world

I don’t know how to explain it, I’m just kind of over her. I guess I’m burned out or something and find myself having a really short fuse. Does this happen to you? I’m really not sure where it’s coming from, it’s been going on the last three days. It’s for no particular reason. I’m sure it’ll pass, but I feel bad about it.

Like I’ll still pet her and give her affection, no problem. But when it comes to play time I am just done.
If you’re finding it hard to get out after work maybe try a doggy daycare or a local dog walker who can take over that responsibility for a couple weeks to give you a break. I have 3 at home, 2 have some special needs and it can be a lot sometimes.

What does play time look like? Maybe find a new way to play with her.

Also, do you usually jump on a new interest and burn out from it frequently?

Play is fine, though her attention span is annoyingly short. It’s a struggle to get her to focus. Making progress but it is annoying.

No.

Ah well how old is she?

Does she have chewing treats? Peanut butter and a ball with a hole can help keep her occupied without needing you to participate.
