Suggestions!!! Help!!! Shylah has started to pee in our bed almost nightly now!! She is so light it is hard to feel her move to know if she has to go! I don't want to crate her after she has been sleeping with us for so long. Plus Starsky sleeps with us and I know Shylah will cry all night. I don't think she would understand why she was in the crate. We can't discipline her when she does it because we don' t know when it happened. She pees on the pee pads mostly during the day. I even make sure she goes before we go to bed! Do I need to put a pee pad at the end of the bed? That doesn't sound to good to me? I am open for any suggestions!!!:mad: |
I don't have any suggestions other than crate her at night. Mine don't get the privelage of sleeping on the bed with me until I know they are completely trained and can hold it without any accidents. When I first got Trixie I let her sleep on the bed with me and she did the same thing, she would always pee on the bed, something that is not pleasant for us. So I put her in the crate at night, even though Peppi was out on the bed with me, until she was trained. She is now completely house broke and sleeps on the bed with me. She needs to learn to hold it, if she does not it will make housebreaking her alot harder. By putting a pad on the bed you are simply telling her that it is okay that she does not learn to hold it. Crating them at night teaches them to hold it. So 2 of my dogs sleep with me and all the others sleep in their crates as I feel they are too small to sleep on the bed with me and could get hurt really easily. They love going in their crates and can never seem to get in them fast enough. Each night I put some soft treats and some chicken jerky strips in their crates and they know the treats are always there. Therefore, they learned to love the crate as they are getting rewarded. The first few night I bring a new puppy home, he/she will whine or bark the first couple of nights. But once they learn whining will get them no where and no attention and that the treats are the reward for being in the crate and for being quiet they stop whining and barking. They then love their crates and insist on going in them. Good luck with whatever you decide!!!:) |
You can put a kitten collar with a small bell on her at night, the bell will wake you up when she starts to stir. Take her to her potty spot right away, I did that with my two when they were smaller and it worked great. |
I do have a bell on her and we don't hear it!! he he! I may just have to crate her. I hate doing that :( |
I too crate little Diva I hate to but the first night I had her in bed with us and she peep too so now I crate her she is real good about not crying. But I feel bad i think she knows but she is only 5 months old so I haven't tried her again. I think I'll wait a little longer. |

when I 1st got Bella, she was WAY to small for any crate (this is when i was back home at my parents, visiting, with out my hubby) I put a pee pad at the end of the bed, right where she liked to sleep and she would go on it.. a few times she would miss, but 95% of the time she got it on the ped. Now that I am back in Germany with my hubby.. I cant put a pee pad on the bed, he would FREAK out, if I did :rolleyes: |
See now with all my babies. I pick their water up at around 7 at night I figure they don't really drink anything after that and never have I had any accidents. I was told by a breeder once that if the pup is 2 months old then they can only hold there bladder for 3 hours for every month they are old at one to it and that is how long they can hold there bladder. I don't know if this helps or not. But for me picking up the water and food at 7 does the trick for us always. |
my baby is enrolled in puppy class, and picking up the water bowl about an hour before bedtime is what the instructor told us to do, also take your baby out to go potty b/4 bed time,she also suggested not getting up with them in the middle of the night if they whine, i did get up with them, but i stopped that, after i stopped letting them have water up until bedtime. i crate both of my babies at night- my 17wk.old female, has gone all night without accident last night, but my 13wk. old male had a pee accident, the poop accidents stopped last week. YEA..... instructor also told us to not let them have free run of house-i have a ex. pen separated in half for them both,that they are in in the day time, so they each have their own space, if they are together all they do is play. and i take them outside many times during the day. and i praise them each time they do their business outside. |
I always put up the food and water at 6pm and take them out frequently in the hours before bed. Right before bed is an especially long trip outside and then we all hop into bed together....we havent had accidents on the bed and Reece whines to go pee in the morning but he still holds it until we get up and take him out. Thank goodness. I would put your baby in a crate for a week and then try again maybe?? Dawn |
