It makes me sad to think of this baby in a crate with no blankets or bed and no place to pee, except on herself. At 10 weeks, her bladder is probably about the size of a small marble and she can't be expected to hold it for so long. When my yorkies were small, I used a playpen which had enough room for a bed and blanket, food and water, and a pee pad. They never once went on anything but the pee pad while in there. Maybe you could take the divider out of your crate and put a bed in there and a pee pad in the extra area. I bet she would no longer pee on herself. She is likely feeling very insecure in the crate while you are away, with nothing to comfort her. |
