Hi, I have acquired a bassett hound that is about 2 years old. She has been spayed and came from the humane society. A friend had her, but got a new job out of state, far away, and had to give her away. I do a lot of work with retraining and retreating animals, so she felt safe leaving her with me. However, she has adopted a problem that I cannot come up with a solution for. If I call her at any time to go the the bathroom, she and my older jack russell will run to get outside. If my husband calls, however, and her bladder is not bursting, she will refuse to go, and will wet wherever she is laying-the floor, the bed, the chaise, the sofa,etc. My husband is not soft and cuddly like me and can only see how much we are losing in furniture. He is not cruel, but is incredibly frustrated with no end in sight. If she is near the door, and her bladder is bursting, she will go with him. Otherwise, no deal. So, I have to get up for all rr breaks and he cannot call her or she wets the furniture. I am assuming she was abused by a man. She used to shake incorntrollably when my husband touched her, now she comes to him. He has picked the name Turdball for her, which is not her name, and she even responds to it when she calls. But no bathroom...Please help!
