Dog Kennel help!
Hello All,
My fiancee and I recent got a 5 1/2 month old black lab from our local humane society. We kennel her during the day while we are both at work and I got home and lunch to let her out to go potty. She was fine for the first three weeks we had her, she would whine and bark a bit when we closed the door on the kennel but eventually she would quiet down. Now, when I come home she is going crazy in the kennel and I'm finding she's jumping around so much that the kennel is moving around the living room. She also has start going potty in her crate. She didn't do that when we first got her. I'm at a loss as to what to do, we want her to be happy in her kennel, but it seems like she hates it.
We used to be able to entice her to enter the kennel by giving her a treat and then tossing a treat into the kennel and now she refuses to enter on her own.
Does anyone have any advice?
Thanks!
Erik
