Thank you so much to everyone for the advice! I guess my only question is how can I train her to go outside to pee and poop if I leave her in the xpen with a puppy pad to pee on. That would work if I wanted to teach her to go on potty pads, but I want to train her to ring the bell and go outside. It seems like she would never really learn to "hold it" and then when I do take her outside she won't need to go. Does that make sense? The whole idea of the crate is to teach her to hold it til you can take her out where you want her to go, but that won't work either if she will just pee in it. Her crate I was using is super tiny and we blocked half of it off so she could just turn around and she still peed and pooped in it. |
