Joanne,

Thank you for your quick reply.

Yes, my wife and I take him for a walk once a a day. Which, he absolutely loves. I have not tried trick training or scent working yet. I'll need to find out how that works.

I agree the problem could be boredom. But, my wife and I are home all day, I am retired. It's not as if we are away a lot of the day.

Does he bark a lot during the walk?

My first thought was that he probably needs more exercise. Walking him a couple of times a day, or for a much longer distance, might help. Cycling with him or jogging with him might help as well. If you aren't in a position to do that yourself for some reason, then hiring a walking service might be worth considering.
