My MIL bought a 3 YO Cairns at Christmas which was being sold by a breeder who did not want her any more.
She had given birth to her first litter 15 weeks before she was rehomed and had needed assistance getting at least one puppy out.
She arrived in quite a state - she had worms and was quite underweight with a poor coat, but thanks to my MIL's care she has become a healthy little dog with a lovely temperament.
The one problem my MIL has is her repeated accidents. She was said to be housetrained, but often leaves puddles even when she has free access to the garden.
Has anyone got any experience of housetraining an older dog? Is it possible that her problems with her litter have done some damage?
MIL is getting desperate as she is scrubbing carpets and floors too often!
Thanks
