Hi, I would like to ask your advice about potty training.
Poppy has been with us for 5 days and before I bought her I read up about crate training. We live in a small apartment, and the winter here is freezing so I decided to keep taking her to a designated area in our washroom, which has a large plastic tray with newspaper in it. I have been taking her every half an hour or so to the spot and she mostly goes there. But....she is still doing her business around the house when I am not watching her and most worryingly, she has started to poop in her bed at night, even though I have been getting up in the middle of the night and taking her to the bathroom....is this normal? I am hoping eventually to take her to do it outside, but she also doesnt seem to understand what I want from her!
Thanks!
