As much as we would love to be able to let our youngsters enjoy plenty of freedom to explore, learn, run free; the realities of the desires of your adolescent dog means that:
- "Explore" morphs quickly into reverse engineering your sofa, laptop, waste bins; or run the neighbourhood until darkness and hunger drives them home
- "Learn" is discovering of the joyous sensations of digging, chewing, chasing
- "Run free" becomes a license to irritate all local wildlife, other dogs, other people or cats
