Also since she still goes in the crate at night you may want to wake up at 3 to take her out again. i know it sucks getting up in between only a 5-6 hour nap. mine was able to hold it at that age and she was crated as well. When you take her out at midnight are you sure she is peeing and pooping? make sure she is, and if she is holding out a little, stay out there longer with her, on a leash, until she does. |
No, she was never trained in any way!

Yep. When I take her out between midnight and 12:30a, she does pee and sometimes she poohs. I stay out with her sometimes for 45 minutes and then it's really time to go in as she is clearly not going to pooh and I have to get to sleep. I have to be up by 5:45a.
The paper lines the drop pan. She doesn't stand on it. There is a grate between her and the drop pan. I just don't know.
Last night, early evening, I left the door open on the crate and she just walked in and peed.


She is usually very good about telling me when she has to go. I couldn't believe she just walked in there and peed

I just know I am at my wits end with her messing in her crate. Well, I guess I'm lucky she doesn't mess all over in the house.
