Hi Beth,
I am sorry you are having some trouble with Dora. It can be frustrating getting through the wild and destructive puppy phases, but it really does get better! Crate training is good not just for potty training but also as a way to contain your puppy when you cannot watch her. Tethering her to you may also be helpful to keep her out of trouble. It is alot of work to train a puppy, but hang in there! The rewards of having a well mannered adult dog are terrific!
