Living like a King

What's the word for a 
dog that wants to eat leather
and be fed by hand.. :-/

So we had a bad night. Leo slept all afternoon and at bedtime was upset and throwing himself against the pen :-( Poor sausage.  I was awake initially reassuring him, watching him and generally fretting. He'd also been so sleepy he'd not eaten much so I was worried about him being hungry.. but also about setting a precedent if I tried to get him up properly and feed him/reassure him.  He settled and had a few hours 12-4 and then I slept next to him 4-5:30.  Today we have made the pen smaller so there's less wiggle room and tried to keep him awake after 5pm?? I'm not sure it works like that but anything that has a chance :-D I've also been trying to feed him up. He likes leaves, leather straps on bags, toys, hankies and (weirdly) pineapple - stolen when Ben dropped some Hawaiian pizza.  He does not seem bothered by the kibble the breeder said he liked.  I ended up softening it with warm water and hand feeding him.  I know, I'm asking for trouble, I just can't be fretting about this teeny puppy in the night again!  Please keep fingers crossed for him and us!
Photo was from when he was eating and I was cheering him on in the background!
