No consolation I know but my Amber as just turned 0ne, I have had 6 previous girls and have an older girl nw who is 9, NEVER had a problem house training any of them, but AMBER, she is the biggest problem of them all, she is loving and adorable, but doesnt travel well, has skin scratching, is very fussy over meals to screaming point and YES can poop for England, she took a while to grasps it, despite us being home all day AND another dog to learn from, just when we thought we had it susses, she suddenly decded to start pooping in the house, anywhere, usually at night but we have had the odd one thro the day ...we live in a Bungalow and she has always had free roam thro't, and I do wonder if this is the problem that she sees the whole floor just like the garden and uses it thus, we tried caging early days and that was a none starter, she has been in season so we put a lot down to that, and she isnt keen on wet/cold weather, which doesnt help...but.......
