My dog kept barking, whining and being a pain for over an hour. I knew what she wanted, her ball, but refused to get it because she’s getting obsessed with it.
Then she made a huge puddle on the new carpet. I’d forgotten she had spent ages playing in the river and must have swallowed lots of water.
She’s never weed indoors since she was a baby. I feel so bad, she tried so hard to tell me she needed go out. How can I spoil her to make myself feel less guilty?

I'm sure she won't hold it against you! Give her a few treats and a big cuddle. I recognise that guilt you're talking about watermeadow I used to feel like that with my dog too if anything like that happened. It's silly but you can't help it!

An error of judgement watermeadow that's all, one small lapse in all the love and care you give your dog, she will love you unconditionally don't upset yourself over it.
A cuddle, a scratch and an extra biscuit all will be well.

Luckily your dogs love is unconditional watermeadow .it wouldn’t dawn on her to hold a grudge ( but a few extra treats or ball time wouldn’t be turned down ) ?

Dogs live in the moment, she won’t remember it tomorrow. In fact, she probably doesn’t even remember it now! Don’t beat yourself up. flowers

Agree don't beat yourself up over it! Your dog will forgive and forget. That's what I love so much about our four legged friends. x
