My parents just got a new dog - an adult female german shephard who has been lost or abandonned and then passed around to a few different homes. She gets really upset when people leave and when she's left alone for more than an hour or two in the house she poops or pees, usually in a room that we don't go into that often. Most of the time she's outdoors most of the day and indoors at night (so it's not that she can't hold it for a couple hours). Does anyone have any suggestions for how to modify this behaviour?
Also, whenever she gets excited she walks in circles with her nose to the ground. Is anyone familiar with this behaviour? We haven't seen a dog do this before but we have never had a shepard before either.
Thanks!
