Thanks for the advice, all hungrily devoured for every crumb of comfort!!! We met outside at the end of our drive, so perhaps too close to home for comfort. Mollie (the other dog) is quite a quiet dog, and was obviously terrified by Lizzie, despite the fact that Lizzie is about a quarter her...

Sorry don't know how I managed to post this twice. Perhaps I will get twice the number of replies! Shows how desparate I am!!!!! :blink: Have had Lizzie at home for 4 days. Got her from a Rescue home, and she is absolutely gorgeous. BUT over the last day or so she has started growling and...

Have had Lizzie at home for 4 days. Got her from a Rescue home, and she is absolutely gorgeous. BUT over the last day or so she has started growling and snarling and barking at her reflection. :( Today we tried her for the first time with a friend's dog - and she was absolutely dreadful! She...

Thanks for advice!! She's being a sweetie, and we are lovin' her so much already! She is beginning to understand about wees outside, but I'm afraid the number 2s are still being performed inside!!! Have put newspapers down now, and plan to move them closer to the door every night. Am...

Today is the first day I haven't had to wash her bedding, so wees are becoming more 'controlled'. However poos are not!!! She won't perform whilst out on a walk, or in the garden. We have started to put newspaper down on the floor and the incredible plan is to move it closer and closer to the...

That's a real bitta class....... Makes my baby stairgate look decidedly dated and uber unfashionable!

Hi all! Feel like a bond is beginning after 48 hours with our new doggie Lizzie. She is still not toilet trained, but I guess that takes more than 48 hours. She still does not realise that a house is not the place for wees and poos!!! She is supposed to be about 3 years old and I think she...

Hi all, thanks again for replies. Am after yet more advice, I'm afraid! We have only had her 2 days yet, so I am guessing this toilet training thing takes weeks, not days??? She actually wet her crate, which I was disappointed about 'cos I thought doggies didn't like to mess their beds! We...

Gonna try again to put on a photo :b

Thanks all for the support!!! It's keeping us going, as she really honks!!! Had a good night with her, tho. She didn't cry or anything, but has obviously never been in a house before, and doesn't understand the whole toilet thing! I think we will have to treat her like a puppy re: toilet...

Thanks ponygirl, I will certainly take your advice! I was unsure whether this forum is for every type and make of dog! Even mixes like our little Lizzie - supposedly a terrier/black lab cross :blink: ! Will try and put a photo on. Must admit have already tried, and don't think it worked...

Hi, this is my first post! We have just picked up Lizzie from the rescue home. She is about 3 years old, a tiny black terrier type. Really cute and loveable and already seems to be settling in nicely (although I bet we'll have problems at some stage!) The dog's home have bathed her, but she...
