[quote=Anonymous]You need to get a handle on the housetraining first.

YES the dog needs to be crated when you are not home ESPECIALLY since it was a Puppy Mill dog. I know this because I have a shelter dog who had the same problem. it took MONTHS to house train her and cost me a fortune in dog walkers since I work.  It was a huge disrubtion to my life, taking her out to pee every 20min and rewarding her.

Yes, it is mean to crate a dog when you are working, but meaner to be resentful at your untrained dog. THe trade off is that dog walkers are expensive and you need one if you are a responsible pet owner.

You are taking your dog out 2xs a day? That is absurd!!  My dog is finally trained and is a year old. I never leave her more than 5 hours (except at night) wihtout a walk. She still has a accident here and there. Here is what our walking schedule looks like, if your dog is not trained, you really need to have her out every 30min:

5:30AM long walk
7:45AM quick walk
11:30 long walk
4:30 quick walk
8PM Long walk
9:30 quick walk to pee[/quote]
