Ah they can certainly get you like that...I know from experience, sometimes you have to sit back and try to look at things from a distance if you like, see them with new eyes, its sometimes surprising how different they can look, and solutions staring you in the face.

 

Good luck with the little chap, I'm sure it will all be worth it

Hi Eleanor hunni, Sorry to hear you are having problems with one of your lil doggies. Some very good advice on here, so nothing to add really apart from a cuddle

 

((cuddle))

 

Just to let you know the white Boxer went back home to his mummy and had been missing for a while.... xx

Thankyou a much welcomed cuddle lol x

So glad that he went home 2 his family , thanks for your help ... I think he'd have found a very loving home with you though if he'd have not had a home hehe x

The crating advice is good

 

When we bring a new dog into the house (used to foster for rescue) we confine him/her to the kitchen and a crate so they're not overwhelmed by all the new smells and objects in their new environment. When they're comfortable with the kitchen (after two or three days) they're allowed into the living room on a lead... until they're confident with this...

 

The amount of mess you're waking up to suggests your new addition is VERY stressed, and limiting what he has to deal with by crating him, and controlling his interactions with the other dogs (don't mix him with the other dogs if necessary) for now should help alot

 

Not all dogs want to please you btw

Just a thought, are you sure that its just him doing the wee's etc?

 

That's a good question. I know the OP's already answered it but it made me remember when we were having trouble getting Bella house trained through the night. And Alice started to poo in the night too even though she was fully house trained. It was obvious whos the poo was as Alice is a cocker and Bella a great dane

 

Alice often leads Bella into trouble as she is clever enough to go unnoticed, Bella - not so much

when i 1st brought my rescue home i had these kind of problems but she used to hide ie behind the sofa when she did it (i think she may have been punished previously for goin in the house) i didnt really realise it at the time bcos i didnt know her and recognise how she felt through her body language ect but she was actually v anxious and this was makin the pooing and weeing worse (dogs will deficate if they are v upset/frightened) crate training was thr answer for me she loves her crate and nver goes in the house now as long as i use it correctly. its her little sanctuary. good luck with your newbie
