Ok, the situation is that I have a puggle who is now completely housetrained. I am working with our 9.5 week old female GSD and I am about to lose my mind. They are both caged at night and when I let the puggle out to go potty, I have to put her on her chain/cable and let her out at the front door (we live in town with no fence). Well when we first got Lexie our GSD, she was doing pretty well and would go potty outside when we let our puggle Lyla out. Now, especially in the mornings, when I let her out, I cannot get her out of the door before she pees on the floor. I have tried letting her out first and she will stand outside of Lyla's cage, letting them out together and she will pee when I am hooking Lyla up, letting Lyla outside first like this morning and lexie took off roaming around the house looking for her, ignoring me at the front door trying to get her to come out. At this point if I was to look at her wrong she pees. So then she took off in the bedroom and dumped what looked to be a half gallon of urine on the floor.
Even after peeing all that much, she just pee'd again not 10 min. later and pooped. She will do this all the time during the day when I let her outside she will pee and then come inside and pee not 10 min later in a small amount and if I don't sit outside with her she won't poop out there either. Is this normal for a GSD puppy? She is peeing more often than our puggle did as a puppy. I figured being our puggle's adult size, she would be able to hold it as long as our puggle.
Also, I have always left food and water down. Should I only feed her at times and if so, how often and when because if I do put it up, when I put it back down, she will eat and drink like a horse which I know is bad for them.
I need help, I am in the process of remodeling and I am about to go crazy. I have never seen a dog go this much in my life and so frequently.
Thanks
