hello...

we just got our little pup about a week and a half ago and took her to Mammoth with us 4 days after we got her...Prior to going on vacation with us we were training her to pee and poop outside and she caught on well. In Mammoth, she was doing great..peeing and pooping outside. However, when we returned she has been peeing on her own bed and sleeping on it even after we take her outside and she does her business....any idea why? or how we can stop this? She's been doing this for two days now and we are continuing to change her bedding every time she does this....we are so confused since we thought dogs never pee or poop where they sleep....advice???

Thanks!

Mike, Jenn, & Moji

Ours have done this, at least Susi, whenever she is upset. When we went on holiday in December, she soiled all the bedding in our camper car. We cut the holiday short and after a few accidents at home she is now clean again. Persevere, she should revert to being clean again.
Your pup was only with you a short time before you broke her routine. Keep at it now and things should look up again.

Welcome to BW Moji and pack! I clicked on your picture.....ADORABLE. :wave:

I haven't experienced the problem you describe, but it might be due to her age and the change in routine. Have you called her vet clinic for advice? As DogHouse stated, it may be just temporary.....

hope it's better by now.

Thanks for your responses....she has an appointment with the vet in a couple of days and this is the first thing we'll be asking...

In the meantime, we're continuing to say "no" when we catch her doing her business on her own bed and then taking her outside...Our washer and dryer are working over time lately....Hopefully, Moji will be over this stage soon...
