boxer still in training

Question
Hi, i want to know how long does it usually take for a boxer to be trusted to stay at home alone without being crated?  my female boxer is 11 months old but if we leave her home loose and alone, she will go on the carpet and eat everything in site.  Any suggestions?  Help!!!

Answer
You know, I have no clue! I still have to put mine up, and he's 12 years old! I have to block of certain parts of the house, he likes the garbage can, and to drink out of the toilet. My best suggestion is to keep on crating her. It's safest for her and your house. She's still really young yet, most Boxers aren't done maturing until they're 2-3, more like 3 years old. And I've found that females can be a little bit harder to train than the males sometimes. Be patient, she will outgrow this sooner or later. :-)
