Forum Rules
1. Here we prefer clarity to agreement. Obviously not everyone is going to agree on a topic; here we prefer to talk out our differences in a respectful manner to ensure mutual understanding and respect.
2. Read the Stickies and Announcements. Each sub-forum may have specific rules which trump the Forum Rules in cases where there may be conflicting information. Read the rules of each board before you post so that you are clear on the expectations of the staff.
3. Respect ALL Staff and Admins. These people volunteer of their time and MUST be respected as well as their word adhered to. They are responsible for maintaining a free, open, clear and organized forum. Anyone found to be openly undermining any official ruling by a staff member will be warned.
4. Signatures: One picture only and no links. Images: To keep the forum looking neat and tidy, we ask that members insert just one picture only in their signatures. The picture should be no more than 200x500 pixels and should be of an appropriate subject, for example, your dogs and their names. Should you need assistance creating an appropriate signature, please PM an Admin and we would be happy to help! This is to ensure that signatures remain a welcome addition to our forum instead of a cumbersome distraction. Links: Hyperlinks in signatures--unless to a personal blog or photo stream of your dogs (like Flckr or Piscasa, for example)--are strictly prohibited. Please PM a staff member with any questions or concerns regarding this rule.

Using crate as bathroom?? Empty

Ok, I know there are tons of threads about crate training and I've read through some of them, as well as the AKC's crate training guide and a few books...and Journey is still young but this is just strange.

Shaqua took to crate training rather quickly. Journey has decided, however, that the crate is where she goes potty. While we are in the living room she has actually walked into her crate to pee....Huh?

When I leave her alone (never more than a couple hours) she finds a way to poop in her crate- through the bars. No joke. This girl is smart.

At first I thought it was the bedding- The breeder had her in a small run with a "potty box" that had litter in it. So then I decided to try no bedding last night. No, she peed right on the plastic and pooped THROUGH the bars into the part of the crate that is partitioned off so that it is the right size for her right now. She was wet when I got up at 530 this morning to let her out.


I've been taking her to the bathroom immediately before she goes in the crate every time and I don't put her in until she's done both...I feed her in her crate...

She's still little so I want to be sure to correct this ASAP...

Any thoughts?
