So there I was....
Discussion
Years ago ,I had a collie pup ,which was giving me problems geting her toilet trained . We visited my parents ,and my pup and parents Poodle/Bejong cross got on well . Next morning ,however - pup had pee on floor. Next night - nothing ,and from then on - pup was scrupoulously clean .Why - we reckon , poodle had "talked " to pup . I 'd reckon that an older dog passes on it's cleanliss attitue to a younger one . And possibly a bit more .

Our Corgi X was a nightmare and even on the cage it had 'This dog is very, very VERY destructive' so I presume someone had already taken her back.
But she was homed with a 12yr old dachshund and 14+ year old CKCS I really think it calmed her down.

Oh dear thats it then as Jake is mostly white! Had a good day today though with lots of play with other dogs, Family around this evening and no mess. Three Springers is no more madness than one Springer lol.

And this is from this evening, Paddy and Jake 'lazy fighting in Pads bed

Then he came home one day and sat down at the kitchen table. The dog ran in, jumped on the table and savaged his head, almost biting off his lip.
Turned out to have had a stroke and gone bonkers...
I looked after a friends 6month old Whippet for a month last year. He was supposed to be "house trained", but pee'd on the carpet the first night. What he was, was "home trained". He'd learned not to pee at home... his home! It took a week for him to learn not to pee in ANY house and untill he came to me to situation had never come up.
