Ok I have Two Boston Terriers. We have had Tessa since a pup and she is almost 3 years old. She is not the problem.
Bella on the other hand is 1yr and 2 mnths old. She was rescued from a bad home and we aquired her from the person that rescued her. We have had her for about 5 months.
First of all we have been trying to house break her since we have had her. First by crate training. Didnt work. She would poop and pee in the crate and even Eat her poop.
We have made some headway on potty training as we have started leaving her out in the house and having a feeding schedule.
LEAVING HER OUT HAS CAUSED ANOTHER PROBLEM
She now tears up the couch and chair cushions and i dont want to have to keep replacing them or her to be harmed by eating the stuffing.
She is fixed but Tessa the older one is not. Tessa happens to be in heat and this seemed to have started around that time.
I just dont want to crate her again and then seperation anxiety start up another problem which was what alot of people said made her eat her poop and stuff since she was not with her "PACK" unless i have to
ANY SUGGESTIONS???
Ok if I Start to crate train her again should i put her in the room with the other dog that gets to stay out in the house or confine her…
Will she get jealous of the other dog being out in front of her in other words
When a dog eats poop it either means they're not getting enough nutrition in their diet, or maybe their poop just tastes really good. I would start crate training again. This will really help out a lot. As long as crate training is done properly ,separation anxiety should not start up.
Don't let her chew those things up! Keep her with you 24/7 and crate her when you're not around. Also, get your other dog spayed. A dog in heat can be stressful for the other dogs around her.
