since i got back from my trip, i have to put him in the kennel everytime i leave my room, even if its to go fill up his water bowl, because he will piss or poop on my bed, usually where i was sitting last, i know its my fault for leaving him for a week, but its driving me crazy, he is soo sweet, mostly when he is sleeping lol, im glad he does good in his crate, he only cries, it really sounds like crying what he does, for a few minutes then he lays down and goes to sleep, but like right now he is laying down right beside me sleeping, and last night he was spooning with me the majorty of the night lol. but when he is awake he is a mess,

If you haven't already you might want to contract a train. From everything I have read about Calvin he has some serious issues that need to be addressed.

yes he does my friend who works with dogs and is a trainer is going to start working on him next week with me, he does have some issues and he has improved slightly since being here but not much

His world was turned upside down. He had no idea why you left, how long you were going to be gone or if you were ever coming back. Plus with all that changed in the house while you were gone and the roommates dog attacking him I can understand why he would be a little on the crazy side. Are you implementing NILIF? Have you gone back to your usual schedule? You may need to take a few steps back in his training and redo basic things. Have patience and be consistent and fair. Maybe leashing him to you during those mundane tasks like filling up his water bowl or going to the bathroom so he can see that when you leave the room you usually don't go far. Keep crating too. I hope he can settle down for you soon.

we are back to our regular schedule, sometimes the other dog is out there so i dont want to take chances but if they are not i will coax him out of the room with me, we are doing NILIF and have been since he got here. he has taken a step back on being on a leash outside since my roomate just let him out back when i was gone, but i am consistant with him, i know it will take time, thou i sometimes wish he would get better over night lol. thank you for the advice

One day it might be better over night, but the next day could be worse. Just stay consistant. I never thought a dog could put me through what Sophie did they first 3mths.
