Help Needed! Help! Any Suggestions ! My dog is having accidents on my bed and couch or is it an accident?

[Fionasmom]

Help! Fiona is a one year old bully who I got at 6 month olds old. When I brought her home she had a lot of behaivor issues due to her owners had her in her kennel all day. When I got her she was timid and only used her kennel to go to the bathroom. I finally trained her to go outside and through lots of parties when she did it.
6 months later she is confident and rules our household. She started to pee on my bed and a few times and we found poop on our couch.
Help. Any suggestions? Thank you!

oh dear, back to basics. you may not like what I'm about to say, she thinks she's the boss and pooh on you and your bed, for now until she learns her place and manners, no bed, no sofa.
sorry, that's what I believe

I will ask is the pee when she is awake or is she doing it when she is asleep? My Colossus had a few "pee in his sleep" instances. We havent had one in about a month, fortunately. As for the poo - I agree with [MENTION=1714]Sherry[/MENTION], your bully is probably showing her leader of the pack.

lol... Whats interesting Jakeisgreat is that when my friend stayed with us for the three weeks, is when Fiona started to have her accidents on our beds and couch. Since she left... no accident..... I wonder whats that all about? Did Fiona feel like she had to show my friend who was boss of the house? Really?

Perhaps the new "energy" in the house just upset her little personal apple cart? As much as dogs like new adventures, they thrive on knowing what's going to happen next. Meal time, walk time, bed time, play time, etc. I don't remember how old Fiona is but if she's a puppy, perhaps it was just the changes with the friend around? It upset her normal routine --- if she has one --- and she should.
