@eeeefarm You are right she is totally different from Biggy. However I prefer for her to get used to sleeping between the rooms rather than in the rooms. That way she can start her day earlier interacting with other members of the family

Hello everyone,

We have just received pippa (1 week ago), our 4 months old basenji, and things are getting out of control. She comes from a very reputable breeder in France along with her sister Laika (adopted by my fried Sam also member in this forum) and was raised in a very healthy environment. At first things were amazing until she gained confidence.

At first I tried to crate her but it was impossible as she was crying and screaming and started hurting herself. so she started sleeping in my room in her bed on the floor. Then progressively, day after day, i pushed her bed until it was outside of my room which was the objective. However it is still impossible for me to close the door as she starts screaming. Given the fact that I am a very light sleeper, she wakes me up very early and starts being destructive before anyone else is awake. It was never the case before with Biggy my french bulldog who died a year ago and use to wait in his bed calmly before all the members of the family wake up.

On another hand, when she arrived she seemed to be very clean, only doing her needs outside. Today, despite the fact that someone take her outside every 2 hours, she keeps on peeing and pooping everywhere!

Please help as she is getting more troublesome day after day!
