Glad you all mentioned crating as a time-out technique... I was only crating her for bed at night. I'll try crating her at some point in the future when she is getting me stressed out again. That's a good idea. I hesitated to crate her, and put her outside thinking it was better because at least she would be able to run free in the backyard and play... but I see now she felt alone, sad, and isolated when I did that! I kept thinking she'd take to it. But she didn't. So maybe I just wanted her to do what I felt she should do... which is ridiculous!! Since I have no idea what she wants sometimes, that's silly of me to assume she'd just bend to my will. *sigh*
Just because I think something is better or more appealing does not mean she is going to see it that way... lol. Apparently, I am being educated just as much as she is. My husband calls it "downloading"... she is young and still downloading info
