Dear dog is my buddy,
Newspaper is a definite no no for her.. because she tears and eats them up. She was potty trained, with praises and the smell rub/left a little at the spot. She usually pee/poo in the crate. she still poos in the cage, and won't poo anywhere else, not even in parks. But the thing is not where she poos, but how she plays with her poo and drag it all over the floor of the playpen. She nibbles on them too.
They always say dogs wont like if there's poo or pee at their sleeping area. She sleeps in the playpen, not the crate, but she still mess her playpen up.
She still eats her poo after various methods to get her to stop. The big "NO" doesn't work. The praise "goood girl!!!" when she leaves the poo doesn't work.
She wasn't alone during the first few months. I stay with family, and my sister's friends always come over to play with her. Plus she gets walks and is a playmate with my sister's friend's dog.
I don't know what to do
