I'm just not a WM doggie parent. Guess I've worn out my uniform. So...all you dog experts, here is the new issue. Three times in the past two weeks he has urinated in the house during the night. That's really strange because when he needs to go outside he comes to the bedside and softly whines. I have accutely sensitive hearing and I don't miss a whine. NO way I have missed three whines.
So, what to heck do I do. Before you recommend the crate I'll remind you that husband has an extreme senior-based attachment to Ace and the crate can only be used when Ace wants to go there. I'm an old lady with an older man. husband can quietly drive me nuts but I'm not going to fight that fight.
Like an inexperienced parent I can't figure out another option. Actually in a way I feel sorry for Ace because he's like a great grandchild. He's only four and we aren't very exciting. We go to bed most nights at eight and get up at seven for work. That's a long time but in two years prior to this month he only had one household accident. Most of the time he lasts til the am but, as I said, when he whines I get up and let him out. So what to heck is going on and what do you suggest? DDD
