How to stop male dog cocking leg everywhere

I have a 5 yo male dog who wets on just about everything including my other dog's (female 2yo) bedding, kennel, water bowl, etc. I assume he is marking his territory as he did not do it before the female arrived. It has been going on for almost 12 months now. I wondered if there is any way to get him to pee in just one area and not all over her things. He has been fixed. They get along well together. Thanks

 

He's probably confused about what his place is, in relationship to the other dog. You need to approach this in two ways.

First of all, you need to reinforce his place in the pack. You do this by petting him first, feeding him first, greeting him first when you come home, and letting him go out the door before the other dog. Get the idea? He has to be first in the pecking order.

The other thing you have to do is reinforce the idea that inappropriate urination will not be tolerated. Put a leash or catch cord on him, and the minute he looks like he might even be thinking about lifting his leg somewhere that's not allowed, correct him. Give the leash a jerk and tell him NO in a voice that means business. Then take him to the area he's supposed to use, and if he goes there, praise him lavishly.

 

I agree.

Although, Smokey was fully potty trained and still, reverted and will not scese to lifting his leg inside. Hince why he is NOT allowed in the house. He has his own house. Litterally. My dogs have a fully insulated and headed and air conditioned houses... LOL..but not everyne can do that..

THey do make Belly bands that are great for training. But not to be left on for extended periods of time when you are not around...

Check DR. Fosterand smiths for the belly bands and underwear...

 

Thanks for the advice. I will give the reinforcing a go and hopefully things will improve. Thanks again

 

JUST A QUESTION: IM GETTIND OSO FIXED THIS MONTH , BUT RECENTLY HE HAS STARTED TO MARK, WILL THIS HELP AT ALL? OSO IS MY ONLY PET, BUT HE STILL MARKS WHEN HE GETS DOWNSTAIRS OR EVEN SOMETIMES ON OUR JACKETS WHEN THEY ARE HANGING ON OUR DINING ROOM CHAIRS. WHEN I LET HIM OUT TO POTTY HE STILL SQUATS, AND HE PRETTY MUCH HAS ROAM OF THE HOUSE, SO WHEN I SEE PEE DRIPPING FROM A JACKET SLEEVE I KNOW HE MARKING WIERDLY ITS THE ONLY TIME HE HIKES HIS LEG. ANY ADVICE?
