I Have A 4yr Old Papillon Who Is Going Backwards On The Housebreaking!?

She was a very good breeder’s brood-a show dog, and she must have been kenneled with other dogs. We were doing well and now, not so much. She comes in from outside and pees in her crate….lies in her bed all stinky and all. If I make her crate smaller, like the kennel version, I worry about elevating her anxiety which she seems to have as well regarding the crate. Now that she’s peed in her big crate, I fear I’ve made it okay for her to do now. She has this love/hate thing going on with the crate. Is there ANY hope she can be trained? Now, when I take her out (which we are doing hourly) she looks at me as if to say, “yeah? So…. a… what do you want to do now?” I’m wondering if
this is really a kidney problem. She can go all night, not pee at all in the morning.. like 10 hours. I’m stumped. This stinks. Literally!~
