Seriously? You're gonna pee on the chair? Seriously?

Behavioral Issues
  • I was sitting in the chair and a half in the living room, had just moved from the couch, and Zahra gets off the couch goes to get a drink and then jumps up onto the back cushion of the seat to sit near me. Sweet of her, fine that is until she started squatting and I realized that she was peeing! :eek:

    The backdoor is right there, she didn't even go to it. Why did she do this???? :confused:

    The only thing that I can think of is that Chase took her bone when she got up to get a drink of water, but why pee on me?! Okay, why pee on the back of the chair that I am sitting on? Pee on him! :mad:

    I tossed her promptly outside after screaming "Zahra, NO!" and quickly put the chair cover and the chair cushion cover into the washing machine.

    The little pee machine is currently locked in her cage because I am still a little po'd (pun intended) at her.

    Seriously, what was she thinking?! :mad:

  • HAHAHAHAHAHA…sorry. Guess she was mad that you let Chase take her bone!

    Dakota used to pee on my bed every time I brought out my suitcase to travel. It got to where I would pack a day early so I had time to do the laundry.

  • Cassi used to make a point of peeing on the dining room floor first thing after every visit to the vet.

  • Rocky will make a point of peeing directly in front of me whenever he feels I've been unduly mad at him (as if his majesty never does anything wrong). Argh….

    The only other time we've had issues with him peeing without warning (before the Fanconi flare ups began), was driving in the car. He'd get so nervous about passing motorcylces and big rigs that he'd "mark his territory" in the car. Talk about a pain to clean up. Thank god we got smart and started kenneling him for travel.

  • My Dad always says, "It's better to be PO'd than peed on!" I guess now you can attest to that (lol)!

  • Oh no! Well at least she peed on the chair & not you? Haha.

  • When Shadow didn't want to show-and I mean REALLY didn't want to show-he would make his point by trying to pee on anyone close enough to do so!

  • Rivermoon- Jack did that once when my husband was packing to travel, so now we pack behind closed doors.

  • Well, I can say I've never had a dog do that to me, wow, it is kinda funny though LOL

    In my opinion puppy humping is just a natural thing - lambs do it too. Yes it may be a dominance issue, I'm not sure. They usually grow out of it if and irt's quite easy to gently discourage them but above all don't make an issue of it.

    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!" :)

    This whole story is so sad and so sweet. This thread really needs a new, more respectful and descriptive title. Even though I understand the desperate frustration in why it was named this at the start. {{{hugs}}} to you, Rocky's forever mom.

    thanks to all your suggestions. this is the second day/night now and she has peed outside. She has started to go towards the door when she needs to go to do a pee, so i've let her out..stayed with her until she does (which has been very quick, it used to take 5 or so minutes but now only 5 seconds..which is great!! She gets alot of praise when she does and she is quickly allowed back inside. Fingers crossed it stays that way!! Yes all bedroom & toilet doors shut..i learnt not to let her out of our sight as she is very sneaky??? One more question which i find odd..why is there a need for her to clean up after herself after peeing on the floor or her bed??

    @senji: I don't know if it makes a difference but Deke loves his crate covered. i put a blanket over it he can hear us but not see us. I think he feels safe(like a den). As a puppy he would cry until we covered it, then he'd quiet down. I don't know if that would help anyone or not. usually that technique doesn't work with crate phobic dogs because they freak out so much they pull the cover in and eat it :) been there, done that :) Good idea though, for the not-so crate phobic dog.

    @Mantis: so how is it working? the LEAVE IT command is great. Start with not cat objects you dont want you puppy to play with, say leave it, get the attention and give a tiny treat… you can also encourage this type of response while playing fetch. when the puppy brings back the toy, hold the toy until the pup releases it, say GIVE not participating in any tugging or shaking behavior which encourages the prey drive. i find that a soothing voice and looking the puppy directly in the eye does the trick. they will look away or release the toy. if this is hard, use a tiny treat to encourage the GOOD GIVE after the fact. Leave it is similar. i used to chase caesar around when he wanted to chase the cats....lots of LEAVE ITs and treats, but the give works as well....caesar bled the two commands together.... give is good becuase it establishes your terms to the game and doesnt encourage that shaking behavior if you want to avoid it ( i avoid the behavior in case we have small kids in the house that pull toys from the dogs) leave it is good to establish your own terms.... Great post, Mantis. I totally agree, and great explanation of the training steps!
