Hello, long time lurker but I've just joined today as I'm after some advice on how to help our new 15 week old pup!
We picked her up last Thursday and she's been brilliant during the day, well behaved and toilet training is going well with just the odd few accidents when we're with her but as soon as she can't see us or even if she can't get to us (on the other side of a baby gate as it's open plan downstairs) she cries and barks hysterically and loses control of her bowels! It's worse at night/if we have to pop out as we have to pop her in the crate and it's a huge clean up job once we go back to get her out and I'm pretty sure the whole street can hear her crying
I know it's only been a week but she gets so upset it's breaking my heart, and it's just not practical to have her upstairs with us during the night due to space and taking her with me everywhere during the day isn't possible. She eats her meals in the crate and will sometimes go to sleep in there during the day on her own accord but the problems happen when we're not there, any advice would be appreciated!
