My new life:
So I take Monty to the vet specifically because i haven't slept an entire night since the dog has been here last Thurs. He wakes me up whining etc because he crapped in his crate. I have no room in this house or I'd put his crate at the backdoor (kitchen) but there would be no room for the water bowel. I have been up usually multiple times to wrap a towel on him to avoid the crap all over his feet and butt, he's dripping sht all over me to the door.
Last night at 1:20 am I put him in the fenced yard so I can clean the sht filled crate he was sliding around in. Once that's done with bleach products (ruined a pair of PJs to the bleach.) I then go out and get him - again with towel, again carrying 60lbs of sht into the bathtub and spend about 1/2 hr cleaning him, drying him, then returning him to crate then bleaching the tub.
All I wanted was TYLAN. Vet gives me probiotics and panacure. Hardly a fix. Panacure is for pups up to about 2 months old, the probiotics makes him sht. So happy days. Happy happy happy when do the men with the clean white sheets show up??? On the way home yesterday I stayed on 81 past my exit cost me an hour. I am TIRED I feel drunk all the time I'm so tired.

I have NEVER had a crate in my house for dogs. (I had one for a dog that used to fly from where I lived to my parents and the only time she was in it was for the flight)
Allow your dog some freedom to move around and take it for a walk before bed time to allow it to go then. Also change the time you feed him to allow time for things to move through his gut. Maybe look into what you are feeding him.
I grew up with dogs and have owned dogs for most of my adult life (not at present as I am not able to give them the life they deserve with my current situation) I have never had a problem with a dog. mine slept on my bed and would wake me to go outside if they needed to.
You need to look into what you are doing and maybe not confining him in a box overnight would be a good start.

Posted by K9Kohle789I have wondered how many dogs are camera shy because I had a foster pup that I could only get pix of her running away from the camera and hiding behind a tree.
