I have a 8 year old Chihuahua that has just started pooping in my bed at night. It is as if she sleeps so soundly she doesn't know that she does it. Why is she just now doing this and how do I stop it?

You should consider that her food may not agree with her. Perhaps try a new brand. You could feed her at a different time than you currently do, and be sure to walk her before bed. If this doesn't get the job done, I would see the Vet for a checkup.
I agree with Lizzyanny. When your dog is a puppy, you feed them puppy food, then adult food and now she's older., senior food. Or homemade for sensitive tummies. Lighten up on night time feeding also. Most important, see the vet.
I find that my dogs go to the toilet not long after their main meal, so I feed them their dinner at 4pm in the afternoon.

Why is my dog pooping in my bed? She's a 5 month old Chihuahua. She's litter boxed trained and when it's warm enough to go outside, she will.
I have two chihuahuas and they are always pooping under my bed. I have had to pull my bed out over and over again to clean it because i can't get under it. I tried sprays, but they just won't stop.
My dog has pooped on my bed on few occasions. How do I keep that from happening again? Why did that happen? She is a pit mix, rescue dog.
