Acquired a second dog in late June, neglected, all bones sticking out and had been mainly kept in a cupboard prior to coming to us (rspca had visited the previous owner twice).
Has turned into a smashing dog. However, came home tonight (after almost three hours out) and dog has wee’d on my side of the bed, huge wee!
Dog had company most of the day, two long walks, tea as usual and toilet break last minute before I went out. She was left with my collie dog, with lots of toys. We have to shut the kitchen as she’s food obsessed and would help herself if opportunity presents. The dogs sleep in our bedroom and have their own beds, they can get on our bed. She had toys, company, water, tv on and lights on. She has been left before. Greeted me at the door as usual.
She has been left several times with no trouble. Last time there was an issue was September when I returned home, after two hours and she'd chewed my shoe!
Any ideas why she might have done this- wee’d on the bed? Something I really would like to avoid again! Probably did the wrong thing as after stripping the bed etc, gave dogs a treat as collie dog wouldn’t settle as he knows they get a treat when I come home, as she’s previously been starved I didn’t feel I could give him one and not her. He did nothing ‘wrong’ either, so they both got one.
Any help or advice greatly appreciated.
