We are going to try a few more things but I've already explained to my daughter that lilly may be happier somewhere else. It's difficult for her but I am trying to make her understand that we may have to put Lilly's best interests ahead of our want to keep her in our family. It's just strange that she went from being crate trained to not being trained at all  |
I think the webcam is a great idea too. It is hard when it seems like it is going so well and then you realize it is not
maybe with a few tweaks in the routine and some more effort to integrate Lilly into family activities -I don't know how old your daughter is but I think if she is vested she can schedule some specific play times and training sessions to ensure that Lilly is getting good interaction and stimulation. I'm really glad thy you responsibly got her to the vet right away to ensure she didn't have a urinary tract infection- I wonder what other medical issues they might consider or other health history that might be influencing? I hope that a few changes in routine make a big difference
good luck!
