Can I make myself any more clear?
Okay, so I've recently gotten a puppy. She's been here for 5 days and to date she's only messed in the house 4 times while I've been home watching her.
So last night I go to work and explain to my mom, feed her before 7pm and leave her in her kennel until she poops outside. Take her out about 15-20 minutes after she eats and she'll go real fast. At 8:30-9pm let her have as much water as she wants. Leave her in the kennel and take her out every 15 minutes or so starting at 9 until she at least pees outside. Let her play after she goes outside and make sure to put her in the bed at 10pm.
What did they do, they fed her and then allowed her to use the bathroom in the house. Then my Dad this morning apparently feed her without telling me and left, so when I got up to fix her breakfast, she took a dump on the floor agian while I was getting the food ready. (She's still on water softened food.) I only figured this out because she refused to eat a bite of the food I made for her. Grrhhhhh. That was just plain being inconsiderate in my opinion.
She's an 8 week old puppy and I understand I've got a long ways to go before she'll be housebroke, but damnit, could they not try to help me? I've got to get over being angry. I hoped writing this would help me calm down, but I've got a feeling that I'm just going to have to take a shower or something to try to get my mind off it.
