<DIV>Now that I have finally contained my houndini, it seems we have some other
issues and I hope some of you have some suggestions. I suspect that Jordan
spent most of her time before coming to Tristate in some kind of
confinement. Monday AM, Loki decided to fly off my bed and bark at 4 am.
This woke up Jordan who non stopped barked until 6:30 am when I went down
and released her. The crate was full of poop and so was Jordan. Nice way
to wake up and my head felt like I had a migraine all night. (Loki and
Crackers snored! thru her non stop barking!) Mon PM when I came home from
work, again a poop covered Jordan. Tues am she was quiet until about 6:15 am and
her crate was clean and dry when I let her out. Wed AM she started fussing
about 4:30AM, let her and Loki out and she finished the night in my bed.
Stopped home about 2 PM Wed and let everyone out. Came home at 5:30 to a
poop covered Jordan. Of course, when I release her from the crate she
wants to jump on me and I have my office attire on. The folks at the vet clinic
where she stayed when she came into TriState had told me that she would
pee on a leash but always seemed to poop in her kennel. So how do I housebreak
a dog who thinks that she has to poop inside? I wonder if she is pooping
in her frantic excitement to be released/see me as she is a velcro
dog.</DIV>
<DIV>She is about 2 and just as sweet as can be and I love her so much but I
would really like to move forward with the housebreaking. Any and all
suggestions will be appreciated. <BR>Kathy with Crackers, Loki and
Jordan</DIV>
<DIV>PS: She gets my version of a GI shower - I wet a bath towel, put shampoo on
half and rub her down and then use the other half to "rinse" her off. I
have a bum knee so tossing her in the tub is physically impossible.
