myLot Discussions on Dog Crates | | Fed up with my three dogs! | | Ok, as some of you know I have three dogs. One is a german shepherd with some health problems, and the other two are chihauhaus. I adore my dogs and can't imagine life without them. BUT, I can't get them to stop making messes in the house! My shepherd is 7, the chi's are both 5. And they STILL will wet in the house and sometimes poo also. I am home 24/7 and they are let out frequently, especially after eating. But often the messes are at night when I'm asleep. I used to crate them at night, but got tired of having dog crates sitting around so quit doing that. I also get messes thruout the day though too. I try to catch the "signals" and make sure they go out, but its hard to watch three of them constantly. Do any of you have any great ideas or suggestions on how to stop this? Right now I have vinyl flooring so its easily cleaned. But, I am planning to move next spring to a house with carpet, and I can't imagine having this problem with carpet! Help??? | |

In fact, I belong to Feral_Cat News, a Yahoo group that often did have dealings with this sanctuary thinking that any cat that went there would have the best of care...what a friggin let down!Here's the entire article(Quote)PITTSBURGH: Animal rescue workers were seeking donations of animal carriers and other supplies to help hundreds of cats rescued from a facility where they had been living in squalid conditions.Officials discovered 600 to 700 cats — many sick and dying — during a raid Thursday at the secluded 29-acre (11.74-hectare) property known as Tiger Ranch. Thousands more are believed to be buried at the site in Tarentum,... | |
