The first night she slept in her crate on our bed and cried on and off all night. I took her to her pee pad each time I got up and she used it each time. Such a good girl...the next two nights, she slept with us and I continued the "pee" schedule. The next night, she wouldn't calm down and wanted to play instead of sleep so I put her back in the crate and on our bed. That night she pooped in the crate so I then put her in her kennel to finish the night. I cleaned all that up and bathed her and the next night, we tried putting her in her small kennel with her pee pad, water and her bed. She cried some but she was fine when my husband got up this morning and he let her out and tried to get her to use the pee pad (she didn't), then put her back in the kennel when he left. About an hour later, I heard her really yelping and I got up and she had pooped in there and had it all over her again. We live in an apt. so I don't have room for the xpen but thought the kennel would work. I'm going to rearrange the contents to try tonight so that maybe she won't step in the poop and also try making her breakfast and lunch meals larger and the lighter meal at night to try to change the time she needs to poop. We love having her sleep with us but do sleep better without a third occupant. I know she is just a baby and need to have lots of patience. She won't go outside...she is afraid when we take her out. She is still adjusting to us but we can tell, she wants to be as close to us as possible. She is playing with her toys and so sweet. I am learning a lot from this forum although I haven't learned how to do much on here...don't know how to post pics.
I feel I'm Internet savvy but not real acclimated to the site procedures so be patient with me.
