Peeing in crate
I know there have been numerous postings about this topic, but I couldn't really find an answer to this specific issue: My 11-month-old boxer pees in her crate only when I place linen inside with her. After she has done this, I will remove the linen (usually a large fluffy pillow/bed) and not place any linen in her crate for about a week or two. When I replace the linen, she pees on it again, only to have me replace it again after about another week or two has passed. I hate to have her lying in her crate with no bedding because it's such a hard surface. I know the issue is not that she is crated for too long because she's only crated for about 5-6 hours of the night and she is taken out immediately before being crated. I also don't think it's a UTI because she's not going anywhere else in the house - nor will she go inside the crate if there is no linen or bedding there. Please help!
