Thank you for the information so far! YorkieTalkJilly - I really like the idea of getting her used to a crate. She has one of those larger soft sided houses in her room that houses her bed and she does like to go in there and lay down/chew on toys when I am around, so that is a little bit of a good start! I just never close it because A. The zipper is broken (grr) and B. her potty pad is outside of it.. can i fold it and put it inside? Thoughts on that? I like the idea of giving her less water. I always know when she has a really bad day when the bowl is bone dry but I can't imagine that tiny body needs near the amount of water she consumes in one day.
I would love to hear more experience on the anxiety aids that you others are talking about. I think i will stop at PetSmart on the way home to scope it out and see if the workers have heard anything. I definitely need to get her into her vet to see what they say though!
