@fifi,

She's still young. How often are you taking her out to go? Maybe that needs to happen more frequently.

@fifi,

Look into crate training. I never had a dog pee inside if they were properly crate trained.

I've seen improper crate training teach dogs to pee in their beds.

If a dog is confined to a bed, and out of necessity has to pee in it and sit in the pee it reduces their instinct to avoid doing so.

I recommend you get rid of the bed (at least temporarily) and crate train the dog properly.

@fifi,

Poodles will never urinate in their beds unless they're mad at you ...

I think your dog may not like his/her bed. Have you thought of this?

Change the bed and use only newspapers. Then if the dog pees on the paper, just throw out the paper.

@fifi,

Some questions:

Is your dog peeing the bed while awake or asleep?

Is your dog confined to the bed, or does she have other options available to her?

How long are you expecting your little 4 1/2 month old pup to hold her pee?

Does she pee anywhere else in the house?

How often does she pee during the day?

How much water does she drink?

@fifi,

You should also have her checked by a vet to make sure she does not have a bladder infection.

I've never used paper or pads, all my dogs where crate trained and learned in a short period of time to ask to go out. Paper and pads just teach them it's OK to go inside.
