Dog bed

[Malenie Piscetelli]

I am very frustrated I brought her a bed last week. She did had a bed by a breeder when she was about between 10 to 12 weeks old. I had her when she was 12 weeks old. I decided to get her a bed. She is almost 6 mos old and she did pee on her bed 5 times in a row and I washed it right after that then I tried again the next day and she did it again. I am glad I didn't buy an expensive bed. She liked it then she pee. I don't get it. Is it cuz it's a cheap bed or what??? Please help!!

Is the bed in a crate? For our puppy, he seemed to enjoy peeing on things that would absorb his pee when he was younger in his crate. What you could do, and it may seem a little mean, but make them sleep on the bed inside the crate if you aren't, and if they pee on it, don't do anything about it until the next morning. With enough repetition, they'll come to realize that if they pee on the bed, then they're stuck with it for the rest of the night. Makes them think twice about peeing there... that was the advise of our neighbors who have a goldendoodle.

What we did though was completely remove Boomer's bed from his crate. He slept on the plastic - enjoyed it actually - and we now only use the bed sparingly. He seems to enjoy just sleeping on our carpet in the house. No accidents in almost two months since we stopped the bed and he no longer needs to use his crate for sleeping either. Only when we go out to prevent any destruction while we're gone.

John, her crate have a blanket and snuggle and never pee in the crate. I brought a bed to put in the familyroom. The bed will not fit in the crate.
