Sheila,
I really feel for you as this is so terribly frustrating, especially
when you are doing everything right.
Re poop-eating: back when I switched Remy (still a puppy at the time)
from kibble (California Natural) to the BARF diet, he was very interested in
eating his own poop. That interest died out long ago, thank goodness.
Either he simply outgrew it, or his system got accustomed to getting all
that good stuff (in the BARF diet) on a daily basis. Either way, that's
likely to pass (I hope that's not a pun).
Re housetraining: Though I did wonder whether she's been having
inordinate trouble with separation from her littermates, there's not much
you can do about that. But -- I think it's significant that during the
first week, while you were taking her *outside* to do her business, she was
doing ok. I agree with Kim's suggestion to return to taking her outside.
That's what I did with Remy, who had me worried for a while, early on, about
housetraining. And each time, I took him out on a *lead.* I took him out
*very* often; he got the idea that "going" outside was good, and he lost
interest in going inside the house at all. Your little girl just *might*
have gotten confused by the change in routine (since she had been very good
for the first week, when she was going outside).
Best of luck, and keep us posted.
Alida
