Our 8 yr. old shitzu/poo female goes crazy when we leave her home alone.
We've never had success from puppyhood at crate training her. She would
even relieve herself in a small crate when everyone told us they would not
go where they sleep. She's a wonderful dog when we or others are with her
but hates being left alone in the house. In the car she would be content all
day.
