My 2 year old mix (greyhound/shepard) is I think, I hope acting out. She is crate trained and well exercised by me and the dog upstairs[
]. Recently my girlfriend who I live with has started working nights again, we're both servers and students, as soon as she started working, my dogs "problem" started. She defecates in the crate sometimes alot sometimes a little, never urine only feces. Prior to this it has been smooth sailing for the duration of time except for hometraining. I'm not at my wits end but any help experiences or advice will be greatly welcomed.
