Pees in crate when mad

We have a 5 month old OES that is crate trained. However, if we need to put her up mid day to do stuff she gets really mad and pees in her create. This happens almost daily!!

Any suggestions or tips to help with this?'

Thanks,

Matt

If it's a daily thing then it sounds like that's one of the times of day that she needs to pee.
Most dogs have a routine of when they eat and drink which means they have a routine of when they need to poop and pee.
I think she needs to go out and potty around mid day.
Puppies really do not have the necessary control over their bladder
until 6 mos. to be able to reliably "hold it" for more than several hours.
How long are you expecting your puppy to wait between excursions outside to potty?

If your puppy pees in the crate she is not necessarily "mad", she simply needs to be taken outside to potty. If this continues, you may be inadvertently training her to pee in her crate, since she has no option but to do so, and after a while you will have a dog that is no longer crate trained.

Medium is the message............

on the other hand: Some dogs develop bladder control more slowly than others. Are you missing signals or maybe she hasn't learned how to give signals.
Dogs do not have the ability to get mad or seek revenge. That is a purely human concept.

Your pup has to go potty and cannot hold it, so there for pees in her crate. Take her out before you put her in the crate, play with her so it gets everything going so you know sh ewont have to go. If you don't have the time to play and know ahead of time put the water up a couple hrs before you go out.
