I need some advice on my 9 month old Sachi.
She has always had a tough time with potty training but with the crystals in her urine, it has gotten worse.

history
she has always been in a small gated area that fits her bed and pee tray.
sometimes she even misses and pees between the two.
I let her out when she wakes up, after I come home from work 9 hours later, 1 hour after dinner, 2-3 hours every time after that and before bed.

problem
The problem is that she wants to pee on carpet, rugs, blankets and even her own bed.

what i've done to try and resolve the issue
She squats and pees. I've washed her bed and blankets, bought new bed and blankets, and she still pees on it. I put up pee pads which helped with her peeing outside of the tray, but she lays on the pee pad where she had peed.

I don't think this is normal behavior? Has anyone heard of dogs laying where they pee?
