Thanks for all of your help. I am new to this and you all had great input. I will search more in the forum as well. Look forward to using this website in the future with our new little Bella!!

We just welcomed a new dog into our family, a Besinje named Bella. We are having a difficult time potty-training her. We let her out numerous times throughout the day and when she comes inside she uses the floor as her bathroom. I have placed puppy pads on the floor and she doesn't seem to notice them at all. Any suggestions on house-training? We are going to try to crate train her but she cries when we shut her in. Any advise or words of encouragement?
