It sounds like your crate is way to large. If she is only 8 weeks old any crate no matter what size would be too large for her. It should only be large enough for her to turn around and lay down. If you are able to put blankets and dog beds inside you need to should consider blocking part of the crate to make it much smaller. You will never crate train with a crate that she has room to roam around.


I have not heard anyone talk about Woolite pet cleaner before. I use this for the occasional accident. Also, if she is peeping on her bed you need to use an enzyme cleaner of that as well. Just washing in the wash machine is not sufficiant because they will be able to still smell the odor of the urine.
