I have a year old miniature daschund who recently (within the last two weeks) began peeing in her crate during the day. We are gone from 730 until 4:30. It seems to be becoming a habit. I am wondering if she will grow out of it or if there is something I can do to re-teach her not to go in her crate. HELP, PLEASE!!

730 to 430 is an awful long time for a year old pup to be in a crate without peeing. Your year old pup is still a youngster more or less. Sure she will grow out of it, when properly trained but I don't like to hear that the dog has been in a crate that long and you expect that she should know she can't pee at such a young age.
