Dreizehn is almost 10 months old and has always been a pretty good, and rather quiet, dog. Any issues I've had with him have been easily, and quickly, fixed. However, recently he's started whining and I am stumped! It started about a month ago, maybe a little longer and it is driving me insane! He does it when I crate him (this is VERY new), he does it as he's walking around, he does it when he lays down, he does it when he wants to go outside, and as I type this he is standing and whining. When he does it I tend to tell him to hush pretty early on but after that I ignore it because I don't want to be giving him attention for an unwanted behavior. His appetite is grate, he looks grate, and otherwise he is acting completely normal.
I'm not sure if this is a part of it as the whining started about a month later but recently I moved into a new house in a new town. Dreizehn doesn't get as much exercise and activity as he used to (dog park 6+ times a week, daycare 5 times a week, and outings to restaurants and farmer's markets) but he still gets a lot. He gets plenty of time to run around, at least 5 walks a week (all about 45 min), he gets to play with the neighbor's big dogs (and they play hard), he has training class once a week, and he gets multiple training sessions daily.
Anyways, I REALLY need some suggestions as to how to fix this because it's driving me absolutely CRAZY!
