Wednesday, October 5th. 9:45 P.M.
I think I pretty much have her bathroom pattern down. I sometimes have to walk her longer then she wants (after awhile she jumps around and howls and tries to drag me home) but at least she has, mostly, stopped chewing her leash. Apparently jumping in circles in the new tactic. I just stop her and make her sit and stay until she calms down and then we just start all over and over and over and oops stuck on a loop there, sorry folks!
She is still whining in her crate, but only when I leave the room. I am trying to train her out of whining when I'm gone by ignoring it, and leaving for short periods and coming right back. With any luck she will fall in to routine and realize we aren't abandoning her.
The only major problem today was going in to the kitchen and finding the cat and the dog fighting over A GREEN BEAN that one of them knocked off the counter while I was cleaning up from dinner. Not Bacon. Not cheese. not peanut butter. A Green Freaken Bean. So I have a dog that likes to eat carpets and green beans and tries to get into my Mikes hard lemonade. At least she has personality.
