You don’t need to use strong chemicals to clean up after your dog – vinegar will do the job. Any kind of vinegar – Wal Mart has Cleaning Vinegar which has a lower pH, and it is found in the grocery section with all the other vinegar. You can mix the vinegar with water, 1/3 vinegar, 2/3 water. This neutralizes the smell of urine, and kills bacteria/germs. The vinegar smell disappears as it dries. You can use the same mix to rinse her off when she has an accident – just stand her in the tub, hose her off with plain water, then using a squirt bottle, work the vinegar and water mix into her coat to deodorize her.
Are you taking her out to pee just before she goes into her crate at night? Have you taken her to a vet to see if she has a bladder infection? Many dogs don’t like to pee on decks or balconies and so they hold it as long as they can – which can lead to bladder infections. In a 15 year old dog, even the stress of a new home can lead to complications in her health.
Have you considered dog diapers? There are several brands out there for dogs that can not control their bladders – so you would walk her, then put her into her crate with a diaper on. You just have to pay attention that she does not develop a diaper rash or sores.
This girl has spent her entire life loving you – and she deserves the best you can offer to her. Take her for a check up, and work to keep her comfortable, and with you.
And last of all – don’t send her to die in a shelter. At her age she will not be adopted and in the days before they kill her, she will be sad, depressed, and wondering where her people are. Don’t condemn her to worry and confusion by giving her away. If you truly can’t keep this girl after all that she has done for you, the least you can do is take her to a vet and have her put down while she is in your loving arms.
