Advice Needed!!!!!!

I remember her telling me about this. I'm sorry I don't have any advice, but I'll send good thoughts her way. Poor Steph.

how old is Jemi?

She's about a year old.

oh okay. well, you guys haven't had her that long if I remember? is she housetrained at all? sometimes it takes awhile for a dog to adjust to new surroundings and house training takes awhile, too.

here's a link I found that may help

I really hope your parents give sweet Jemi a chance, 2 days isn't nearly enough to have her housetrained properly.

Here is a good link to a group of excellent doggie trainers. I am sure you can get some awesome advice there. I do know the first thing they will say is to start feeding the dog its meals in its crate. I dog will not soil its eating area.

She needs to start from sctrach - take her out ten minutes after she eats, and walk her until she poops, then praise like crazy. Why does she need her sister's cooperation? Is she not home all the time, now that it is summer? Take Jemi on a long walk several times a day, especially in the morning very first thing, after eating - is she fed more than once a day? And again before bed time. Do NOT feed her snacks after her evening meal, but do walk her until she "goes" once again before bedtime.

this is either a matter of training, if she's never been completely housebroken, or a veterinary concern, if she has been and suddenly restarted. Could there be something wrong, medically?

Steph told me that she took Jemi' to the vets before. I don't really know what came out of that.
