Hi everyone,
I have a 6 month old miniature doxie that I've had since he was about 10 weeks old. For the past month or so when he goes into his crate at night for bed, he will bark at the top of his lungs for a good ten minutes straight!! Then when I take him out of the crate in the morning, he has peed in his crate. He doesn't bark in the middle of the night to be let out. I'm almost positive he is peeing while doing his 10 minutes of barking before he gives up and falls asleep. I always take him out before bed and he goes to the bathroom. He gets a 10 minute walk in the morning, and half hour at night. He's only in the crate for sleeping- we have a play pen for the day.
Please please help!! the barking before bed gives me a headache and I can't keep washing his crate blankets every day!
For the most part he's almost potty trained.
Thank you!!! :dogcool:
