He was going to the front door just fine for the past 4 months; now, he just pees wherever he wants. The only change is that he got fixed, but that wouldn’t effect his potty training, right? What do I do with a dog that knows what’s right, but seems to disobey all of the sudden??

My 1 year old Pomeranian has been tinkling in small amounts on the edges of the kitchen floor instead of on his dog potty. I think he’s "marking". Does this stop if he gets nuetered?

I just got a small puppy and trying to potty train it to go outside in the yard, but he is tiny!!! How the heck can i tell he did it or not? even he did (on my carpet) is just a tiny bit! I really has no clue if he did it or not on the grass … sorry if this is a stupid question.

I have a 10 month old male shih-tzu named Bentley. He’s a great dog, and was housebroken by the age of 3 or 4 months. He relieves himself on a "potty pad" that stays on the screened-in back porch.

Just recently, he has started a problem that we consider very serious. Instead of going to the door so that we will let him out, he has decided that he can just pee on our couch or in the bed.

He is crate trained, so leaving him in his crate close to all the time isn’t a problem, but he’s been so good for so long that we can’t understand the relapse (and WHY he only desires to pee on the couch and in our bed).

He doesn’t sleep with us except for "special occassions" (usually when my husband is out of town), but why not just pee on the floor? We have a high bed, so it’s a big jump to make JUST to pee there. He’s done it several times in the past month or so, and the same goes for the couch as well.

Does anyone have any tips for our semi-relapsed pup?

Our dog, who recently turned 1 year old, who has been potty trained, has started peeing in the basement once again. Thing is, we’re either never awake or never here when she does it so we never catch her when she does it. We do not believe in kennel training. What else can we do to stop her from these accidents?
