Please help!!!! I rescued my Yorkie Diamond on March 27th of this year... She is between 1 and 1 1/2 years old... It took some time to get her potty trained and understanding her roll in the house... At the time we brought her home, we had our Chihuahua Max.... He was the best dog we ever had and was very well behaved... He past about 1 month after she came home... I believe she learned a lot from him in that short time... Well on May 11th of this year we rescued a 5 month old Pomeranian... He is stubborn and I believe he is showing Diamond all the wrong things... She now pees inside and has started chewing on the furniture... She has never chewed before but he does so I believe she is doing what he does... Im losing my mind... I stay home with them all day... Diamond had really bad seperation anxiety so I hardly leave her alone... But Im to the point that Im tired of saying "no" or "stop"... My husband is on the verge of getting rid of both of them... Please help!!! |
Have they been to the vet for checkups? If yes and no UTIs or parasites, I would try confining them to one room like the kitchen, and walk them every two hours to get them 'going' outside. Praise and rewards (treats) when they do good. Clean any mistakes in the house with an enzymatic cleanser to prevent resoiling. |
Yes they have been to the vet. I thought about making them stay in 1 or 2 rooms, but I dont think I can do that. They are so used to roaming all over and they go everywhere I go... I had been keeping myself in the kitchen all day so they would stay in there, but they started chewing on my chairs. :( They have a doggy door to come in and out as they please, but I still take them out after every nap and when they finish playing. Now I just wake up and take myself out of my room so they pretty much stay in whatever room I am in. I feel safer with my furniture this way... I can see everything they do, even tho they sneak by me sometimes ;) |
