| Hello to everyone Just to say hello to everyone. Please forgive me I have never been on a site before, so all this is new to me. I have been reading your comments, and have the same problems. My pup Dana is not very good at going outside to do her business. She comes in and does it . I have 2 other dogs an old Jack Russell called Tiny, she is 10 and a Yorkshire Terrier called Precious she is 1. Dana is only 3 months old. They all get on well together now. We have a little door thats open all the time gives access to the garden. Dana goes out with the other 2 dogs, comes in and starts to pee. Night time is the worst because the other dogs are asleep, and she wants them to take her outside. I am tired because I am up with her several times in the night. First she wants to be on the bed, then she wants to get in the basket with the other 2. She is small and cant get up and down on the bed herself. She is destructive and very naughty. I dont know what to do sometimes. I have had many dogs but none like her. She killed my pet rabbit he lived in the garden and slept in the greenhouse at night. She chased him, must have caught his eye. He died from shock the next day. I was so upset by this. I do love her, and she is very cute, the other 2 dogs never bothered my rabbit. I know I should have kept more of an eye on her. It was just play to her, but not to my poor rabbit. Thank you for your tips. I will try them, Sandra |

| Hi! Welcome! I'm sorry to hear of the loss of your rabbit. Babies can be so challenging. Gracie Ruth is 8 months old now and she is finally starting to behave like a good girl more times then not. They just have so much energy and curiosity about things. Be patient with her, she will grow into the lovely girl that you want, it just takes a little time. The 2 biggest things that really seem to help with Gracie are, Walks, at least 45 minutes of a good brisk walk. Every day along with some good one-on-one play time. This more then anything has helped us get thru the nights. The second thing is since she was spayed she is not quite so over the edge with energy. Still very active, curious and into things, but also more willing to sit and snuggle. I know it's hard right now, but it won't last forever.

| Sandra,Tiny,Precious and Little Dana!! Dana's just a curious puppy. I'm sure she will get better soon! I'm sure we've all had some experience or another here. Mine are almost 11 months and 6months and they Still aren't completely potty trained yet. I know they can make you crazy sometimes! lol I'm really sorry about your pet rabit

| Thank you Hello everyone thank you for your lovely pictures and messages. I have used some of your tips on Dana. She is much better now. She uses a puppy pad or goes outside now. Odd mistakes but much better. I found out she is not very keen when dark, so I have put a small lamp outside for her to see in the night. She likes the lamp and goes straight out for toilet. Best Wishes (Sandra) Blue Moon: |

I use a mag light flash light with Maya. She doesn't care much, she rather likes dark discreet corners, but I need to be sure that she has done something, thus the light. When I have got get up to go to the Grismill it is still dark outside, and the flashlight is a must.

| Kacee took a quarter-size piece of fur and skin out of the back of a baby bunny that was hiding in my mums when she was a puppy. The poor little thing took off running and crying. That is just what dogs do. She just looked down and bit at it. It was in HER yard. They are very territorial. My neighbor's small yorkie killed a baby bunny, too, so you understand that is what happens when they are in the doggies yard. I'll leave it to others to give you advice on the other. Welcome to YT, by the way.
