| Piddle pad missage continued ... now the chair! No, not the electric chair , but I posted last week or so about my nearly two-year old boy who seems to be peeing a lot and keeps missing the piddle pad (peeing on the blue border). Well, this past week or so, he seems to be just losing it -- peeing off the pad or in a different area of the house or, tonight, ON A CHAIR. He was up on the chair (which I allow, it's an old chair and he likes to play on it) and right in front of me he squated and peed. Well, all heck broke loose, and I scolded him very seriously. Not too much later I found that he had peed again on the edge of a pee pad and the pee had run under the pad. There was also aother wet pee spot more on the pad. Some of you suggested I try him with a litter training tray with a pad in it, but so far he refuses to use it (barked at it the first night and when I left it in his pen with him while I was away for about five hours, he held his pee the entire time until I came home and took him out of the pen, rather than climb into the tray!) What does this behavior sound like to you all? Should I consult his vet? I feel like a mother with a human toddler who has become a little monster! Please, I just really need some help!!!! I am on the verge of tears ...

| Is he being scolded at all for peeing on the edge of the pad? If he is, I just wonder if he's getting confused on where he's supposed to be going. I think I posted in your last thread that we were having "edge" problems too, but have now completely solved that with washable pads. But when we had the paper pads, Coby got a treat for even "edge-peeing" because I was afraid to confuse him.

Here's the link to her thread. They're not on sale any longer, I don't believe, but it'll show you the patterns, etc. You could PM her for more info. She was very helpful to me deciding. I never would have thought I would have liked the washable ones, but we love them now (if you can truly "love" something that someone potties on! ).

| Have you taken him to the vet to make sure there isn't anything medical going on with him? Often inappropriate peeing can be a sign that something isn't right, like a urinary tract infection. |

| Yes, back to the original problem, good question.

| I think I'm going to make him an appointment for the vet. I'm kind of thinking there may be a UTI or something going on, too. He doesn't seem to be uncomfortable or anything and he did hold his urine the other day for five hours -- but I kind of feel there might be something going on.

| May be a little rebelious behavior. Penny always goes outside and the other day I carried her outside and she just decided to let it go, and peed all over my pants. What a goober.

There has been times last year that he had peed else where and here are some of the reasons why He peed on my chair once , we had comapany and as soon as they left he walked over to where this man had sit and marked it. When he was having trouble peeing because ofkidney stones he started peeing in front of me, The vet said this was his way of telling me something was wrong. | |
