phoenix 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2008 (edited) hi! is your crate configuration still the same? can i make some suggestions? (hope u dun find me kpo )1) shift the water bottle to the other side. coz its at the pee tray side. if she pots, she's quite likely to step on it before getting to the water. 2) take that bedding out, takes up too much space. use an article of your clothing (old one lah.. that u dun wan liao, so if it gets soiled u can juz throw away..t-shirts would be good). it wld be better if u can use it first! got your scent... helps with the bonding...helps reassure the pup when its alone when u go work or go out. 3) that bowl too big liao.. change to smaller one. how old is your pup? doens't look younger then 4-5 mths. can feed twice a day lah. try not to put food inside the cage. feed morning before u go work then night when u return.haha.. mama=alpha. i like that *wink* Edited March 7, 2008 by phoenix Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BunBun 5 Report post Posted March 7, 2008 Greycat, your hubby don't mind being in beta category? !! Harlow Phoenix,Yupyup, still doing training le...*nodnod* She keep stepping over her poo, esp we dont get hme in time to clean for her oso. Had to bath her yest cuz **** got into her white fur, haiz.... !! She seem to be aiming to do her business on the peepan (which is half of the cage size). But sometimes miss lor, den she oso anyhow step. In the 1st place, the peepan so big is becuz the petshop recommend, they say if big den wont gif puppy too much choice on where to poo/pee. Seems like Yuki still dont care le...Den worse is, I dunno how she does it, she pees "under" the pee pan We thk she poo 1st on the pan, finds it too dirty, den push aside & pee on the cage, den push the peepan back to cover her crime !! Thanks BunBun, will note that....yuki is like 1 little kid nw, agree totally....Been trying to teach her this: Mama=ALPHA, Papa=BETA, YUKI=LAST Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LLhome 0 Report post Posted March 7, 2008 cannot imagine the look on ur parents... but tink ur yuki should hv no prob in winning them over. remember she got a veri cute n pretty face...my ger oso can manage to win my mother over wif her kind of look. so ur yuki sure can do it one. somemore my cat still at my mum place. n the cat is my mum's precious. u can understand how my mum goin to worry when we move in during our reno. now my ger has successfully win them over... my mum even cook her chicken everyday. feed her biscuit, bread n papaya every morning. now when my ger got surgery, my parents will be calling now n then to ask bout her. when we move to JW, my dad even ask my hubby to drive my ger home b4 my hubby go to work. knock off then come fetch her back. like granddaughter like tat. see.... dun underestimate a dog. my mum dun reali like dogs but yet she now totally change. jus remember to get ready the necessary items like mop, toilet paper, newspaper...

BunBun 5 Report post Posted March 7, 2008 LOL since the dog belongs to my hubby, its natural my hubby got a soft spot for it. That why my hubby's not that fierce as me when it comes to scolding and spankings. I reckon I'm the alpha when it comes to the dog but when it comes to household stuff and other matters, we both take turns to be alpha to make the decisions. Kekekehaha.. actually for me i can't decide who is actually the alpha. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
