Bubba my beagle

Question
Bubba is 1 and 2 months years old. He has a great deal of anoxity when my boyfriend and I leave the house. That is fine but we cant seem to get him to stop messing in the house. When we are home he asks for the door and all is well. But when we are gone to work during the day he will not stop to mess. I know that he can do it because sometimes he will go 2 to 3 days without messing then he starts back again.
I have tried putting him a crat and I cant he hates confind areas. The only way is will not hurt himself and destroy my house is if I let him roam the house. Hes fine BUT pees on the carpet.

What can I do to help him. We have ababy on the way and I cant deal with both.... HELP PLEASE!!!!

Regards

Mandy

Answer
Hello Mandy!
Bubba's anxiety is probaly causing this. I would look into some medication with your vet. There is some other things you can do that are small that will help out. Try getting some lavender air freshener. It will sooth and calm him when you have to leave. Because you don't want him to have anxiety, it can cause serious health problems. If a crate hasn't worked for him having accidents, try the puppy training pads, the scent will attract him to it. If that doesn't do the trick I would just look into getting him trained. Because I'm sure you and your boyfriend are stressed enough with the arrival of a baby and may not have time to do it the long way. If you get in professionally done then you won't have to worry about if he will continue with the accidents when the baby is born. I would also look into with your vet about him having a possible bladder infection. Its alot easier to get in males then females. I hope I have helped, if not please don't hesitate to ask anything else. Good luck and I hope for the best with your beagle and awaiting a new baby!
