I am so sorry you are having to go through this. You are such a blessing for this sweet puppy and I can tell from this post that you love her already. It is a very stressful and scary situation but is something that can be got through. One of the things I have learned from my new puppy is that it is like having a baby in the house and your puppy is like having a preemie in the house. You can do this but it will need to take some tlc over the next several months. I am a newbie myself but this is what I did and what worked for me. I bought a small crate that my puppy could make her den. Put a crate cushion in it, a receiving blanket and a soft cuddle toy. I carry this crate from room to room with me so she is always by my side. I sleep with that crate on my bed. She wakes up every three hours and whines to go out. I take mine out to my back yard. You can take yours to the pee pad. I have heard of putting a ticking clock in the crate for comfort, could try white noise or wave machines, could try soothing music. I also had a food and water dish that clipped onto the door of the crate so puppy had food available at all times. Just be sure to let out of crate every couple hours to try the potty thing. I know it is exhausting but so is a new baby in the house. Think of it the same way and this too shall pass. Take lots of pics because your baby girl is gorgeous.
