 soiling crate upon separation
We have been leaving our six month old Yorkie in a crate but when we leave to go out to dinner or on a quick errand, she invariably soils the crate---I have come home to a yorkie who is frantic and there is poop all over the crate. We have only left her for a short time (15 minutes) in some instances...
while we have only had her for a month, I do wonder about why she is doing this....if the breeder uses the kind of crate where the potty pad is underneath, do you think this contributed to the problem? it was my understanding that the dogs would do anything not to soil her crate...she goes through the night beautifully....I suspect she's just frantic when we leave her home....any advice would be helpful! |
