    Polar Fleece is a better choice, I agree… or sturdy beds/mats for the crate... you really need to see how she does with bedding, none of my Basenjis were bedding killers. And the crate should be in the room where you sleep, next to your bed.... then you are right there to deal with any issues.

    If no UTI, perhaps a different crate? If she is used to plastic, try open wire, or vice-versa. Is the crate in your bedroom? If not, she may be having some anxiety issues, and moving the crate and changing it may help. Most 'good dogs' who are comfortable in their routine don't start waking up and crying and peeing for no reason.

    I find that when my b's get older, they get more clingy..they follow the humans around, they want to be right by them and they take comfort touching them. I have an older b and I treasure these times…I will call on these memories, in my mind, when my beloved boy passes...until then, if he wants to be where I am I am good with that.

    Thanks for all your advise so far. Here's the update… patience and persistence seems to be paying off. We confined him to whatever room we were in so we ALWAYS caught him. After just 3 weeks of this he started running to the door! I completely thought he'd never get it. He didn't seem to be connecting "outside" with "potty time". But its been nearly a month now and he is about as house broken as our other 11 mo old. We still have accidents, especially when its wet out, but all your advice seems to be paying off. Thanks.
