My 7 years old dog who's given by one of my friend because he could no longer keep it. she's well trained and everything. when she moved to my house. she doesn't know where to go to the bathroom anymore, but that's been taken care of. not too worried about. but NOW, URGEN;Y NEEDS HELP
When nobody is home, we lock her in a cage, everytime we come bak, we would see a big cut on her nose, it's also been bleeding. so then we thought the cage was too big and then we got these fences for dogs and fenced it on the washroom. it was fine for about 3 days until today. she started doing it again. this time we could see the blood everywhere in the washroom , apparantly we could tell she's been biting everything in the bathroom and lots of blood stain on the wall and other objects. WHT'S GOING ON >_<

Are you trying to say that your dog is biting at things when you are away and somehow harming himself?

ok sry i was a little desperate it didn't make sense.... but here's what she was doing http://media.putfile.com/hurting . i have no idea what she was doing, playing a mind game on us? self multilation? i dont know. but basically that day we went out again and we locked her up in the crate IN the car. we watch her cry, weep =/ . and i guess she knows doing that didn't work and since then she never did that again (only 2 days tho so far)
PS: the clip was suppose to be 40min long, but i couldn't upload so then i just put up the first few seconds on when he started hurting herself...... sry about the bad angle, it's kind of a spycam....

Ok, my first thoughts are that A) she's suddenly been removed from everything familiar and she's not adjusting to the change well and B) I don't know where you live, but around here it's getting terribly hot so please don't leave her in the car for more than a minute if the A/C isn't running.

Try and give her things like stuffed Kongs, toys and the like to keep her occupied. Do you work or are you still in school? Can you be home at all during the day or come home on lunch? She may not be used to being left alone for so long. Try installing a DAP/Comfort Zone plug in near her crate and use the spray on her bedding. Possibly look into doggie daycare? As a last resort, talk to your vet about some anti-anxiety medication.

Sounds like she is having seperation anxiety.
I couldnt view the video for some odd reason..ehem my puter is dying a slow death.
Just try to make her as comfortable as possible.
Maybe try exercise before you leave for long periods...A tired puppy is a good puppy!
