Dalmation issues...
Sounds like a tough situation... A few dog level tips: Dogs do NOT go to the bathroom where they sleep. They may until they figure out that is their sleeping area. That is why nothing around her crate.
Have you tried Crate Training? Maybe check that out. It sounds like a good possibility. Local Pet stores should provide you with information.
Have you tried Bitter Apple or Tobasco Sauce? Bitter Apple Spay is available at your pet store. You spray it on and the dogs hate the taste. Tobasco Sauce is good for Trash bags. It burns their nose safely.
Have her confined to ONE room! Provide as much "Child-Proofing" as possible. Limit the chew toys to known dog toys. Try some raw hides. This is more comfortable than a small create. Take her out on a regular basis. Let her run around the house freely while your there. Make this assigned room her safety blanket room. Maybe a place for her to hide as well.
I have an older Eskimo Spitz and 3 other younger dogs. The older dogs tend to stay away from the younger ones. May check into getting an older dog instead of an high energy pup.
Dalmations are very active dogs and into everything. They are prone to deafness so keep an eye on this.
I hope this helps. I've got a new Border Collie that is alot like your dog!!!
