It seems so...Oh Paula, (((hugs))) that is rough. It seems so cruel to be angry at the dog and want to be rid of her, and yet grrrr at all the cleaning! We had a similar problem with our dog when I was in college. She was always a nervous dog, and had come close to death when just a year old, but we nursed her through it. The same year my sister and I started college (which meant leaving her alone all day until my parents came home from work at night) we also moved to another home in a different state, and so her whole life was in upheaval. She regressed back to making horrible messes to the point that my parents had to keep her in the basement (concrete floor) during the day, to contain the mess. A few months later she died, and when they took her to the vet, it turned out she had had an enlarged heart, and that was the cause of all her nervous troubles. The vet said it was something that would never have been detectable or treatable, but it explained everything. She was a super loving dog, and it was so sad because she wasn't doing the messes on purpose, but it was GROSS. I feel for you.Gretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00906853847866488112noreply@blogger.com
