Pee trails

Behavioral Issues
  • E

    Iam new here and to B's since i just learned that my puppy is a B mix, mostly B though. He is 5 months old we guess. He knows to go to the dog to outside to pee, but sometimes if he is playing with our other dog or even for no reason he pees alittle. Its like little pee trails through the house. It also seems like he pees frequently. But when he's in his cage he never has an accident. It seems he just wants me to take him outside. Any suggetions.

    Has he had a vet check? He may have a UTI. It may also be that as a 5 month old puppy he just doesn't have a mature bladder. Many puppy accidents happen when they are excited like during play or greeting. They get so excited they just can't hold it.

    Erik, My Keoki is 6.5 mos old and we had a similar problem w/him. I guess you could say we still have that problem, since he just did it again last week {ARGH!!}.

    He has always stood still and peed in one spot outside. But even as a young puppy, if he peed in the house he left a pee trail. No UTI, no other health problems. I have yet to figure it out.

    You're lucky he "pees a little". LOL Keoki left trails from one room to the next. We have hard wood floors through much of the area, and it was sometimes hard to see the pee. There'd be one of two of us, standing or crawling around, cocking our heads at different angles trying to see the pee {it gets "lost" in reflections from lights and windows}. Really, quite ridiculous!

    Our female never did this.

    Good luck.

    Thanks, glad to hear I am not the only one. He has been to the vet and gotton all the shots and a general check up, and they said he's healthy. Just gotta keep with the training. thanks

    My mom has a dog that did that when he was a puppy. Now that he has gotten older (2 years) he doesn't do it anymore. If he is otherwise healthy he probably just needs time. When he gets a little older and develops a little more control I bet he stops.

    I have noticed my female besingi mix (18months) of age becoming more and more agressively towards me, children, and other dogs. She is very well socialized however she is becoming more dominant, wanting to nip at faces agressively when playing with dogs who too want to attack playfully at the face. However, she has become very aggressively to mommy when trying to keep her outside while I vacuum and she absolutely hates the vaccum and having the door shut closing her off from me. SHe tried to bite my arm (very agressive face with fangs out and fur up) last week and I had to use a broom in order to shut the door. Additionally, she snarls at children. Khloe and I are the only 2 in my household, so no kids and no one else. Only few friends and neighbors stop by but lately she is getting even more aggressive towards them, even if she knows them. I do not know what to do. We were kicked out of puppy training when she was 4 months old b/c she has severe leash aggression. She does work well with a clicker, but I dont always have the clicker on me. My vet today told me to come on here to see if you guys could potentially help or lead me to the right direction of contacting an animal behavioralist. He stated Khloe will only get worse if nothing is done. Additionally, I do not spank Khloe, I only use a clicker, but obviously does not show her that I am the dominant one. SHe also demands all of my time to the light up laser for hours on end and will not give up. Please help! Vonda

    A UTI IMO would be the best case scenario, some antibiotics and bam situation resolved. Changing behaviour is a hard thing to do, it takes time and effort. Having your animal checked for medical issues first is what ANY good behaviourist would suggest when there is a signifigant change in the animal. It makes sense. BTW drinking a lot of water would also make me recommend going to the vet first.

    Alfie is now 10 months old and still as naughty as hell. Yesterday evening, he was kept in the hall as the covers that we normally put over the leather sofa were being cleaned. This was not to his liking so he promptly found a way into my Son's bedroom and pee'd all over his bed. This is about the fifth or sixth time he's done this. Not impressed!!

    Many puppies will totally forget about house training when they really start to teeth…. so just always go back to housetraining 101

    Had a Corgi at the bark park come up to me, look at me with the cute face Corgis have, then lift his leg and pee all over my shoe. I gave him the same line I give She-Ra: "You're lucky you're so damn cute!" :)

    When I first got Tayda, I left her in the bedroom when i went to take a shower. When I got out of the shower, I noticed she peed on the bed! I totally thought it was out of anger that I left her in the bedroom. Strangely, when I brought Lenny home a year later as a puppy, he did the same thing.
