We kept a close eye on Hot Rod when we were crating him and then we got the expen. We watched for the circling signs and so forth. As he got older, his poops stretched out over the day and he would go for hours before need to poop again. Maggie is 5 mos now and she is at 2x a day and has been for about a month 1/2 now.
From what I have read, crating for the time that you are is okay. If you are really concerned, look into getting an expen for Zoe and this way she can be out more often. The only issue is that you will probably need to get her to use the pad as she may do her business before you get home. I've attached a picture of my expen to give you an idea. It was the best thing that we did because I was concerned about getting home late and so forth. But it sounds like you are on your way. |
Thank you. I think i'll stick to crating.
I think after a few weeks she will get used to the routine.
