We are at our final straw with waking up to a mess and having to bathe her. PLEASE I NEED ADVICE. What is the problem? Why is she doing this? Ill list what we have already tried.
Her crate space is TINY now.
Only feeding her once a day and limiting water. NO FOOD or WATER after around 2:00 or so.
Taking her out in the middle of the night. We took her out last night at midnight and 3 am when I woke up to feed baby at 7 I go to let her out and she had peed in her crate.
Any advice I NEED it.. My husband and I are so furious and need this to stop NOW. She isnt eating or drinking well anyway since the baby has been home anyway. Ive given her Nutrical a few days just to make sure she does get hypoglycemic.
Thanks so much for listening we really love her but cant do this much longer. She was holding it from midnight until 6 or 7 before and that was being feed and drinking water at around 4 or 5.  |
It has only been two weeks. She's very tiny and I cannot understand your anger at one so young. Try setting up the play pen for her with her crate in it and leave the door of her crate open so she can go to a piddle pad in the play pen if she needs it. Most of all, she needs love, attention, and a schedule. Perhaps it hasn't occurred to you that your getting up in the night has changed her schedule and upset her, too.
