My two-year-old Bichon frise keeps peeing on everything, her crate, my bed, everything. Any advice before I give her up?

I would recommend to rule out something like an infection in Presley's bladder before you give up on her. Since she can't talk, you don't know the reasoning behind this behavior. The veterinarian will look at her urine sample to see if there are any abnormalities which may cause this behavior. Go from there. If it does look to be more behavioral, speak with a trainer, read some books about housebreaking difficult dogs. Most dogs can be properly housebroken but not all learn in the same fashion. Definitely rule out your medical causes first. I hope this helps to point you in the right direction. Please feel free to post any further questions.
