| Excitement piddling My 5 month old puppy Wallee has started to piddle when people greet and pet him. I have a friend who's 4 year old cocker spaniel never grew out of that and it isn't pleasant have her pee on you when you visit. Anyone have any suggestions how I can stop this behavior? |

| Callie did that when she was a pup and we were told she would grow out of it so we never did anything and she did grow out of it.

| I had that with my a few of my big dogs in the past and Miss Mini...A vet told me to ignore her whenever I come in and to tell any visitors to not acknowledge her for atleast 5 minutes upon entry! It works, it really works and its funny cuz she doesn't do it when I come in anymore but will do it when anyone comes over that doesn't remember to ignore her when they come in...Its so hard to ignore her...and when guests come over they even know when its appropriate to finally acknowledge her! Shes got everyone wrapped!

| It is kind of the same as ignoring you want to come in and not give any attention untill she settles down same with guests. You should teach her to sit and not give any attention untill she sits for you

| So Happy , I just have to Pee This is a very common behavior. Most dogs out grow this. We use no eye contact, no touch, no pet, Until they sit. We also have a no dog area at the door. Most outside doors are 36 inches wide, so our dogs are taught to stay back 3 feet. This is the no dog area. We cue them with Back, Sit . All my family and friends know the rules. Strangers are different story. I keep a spray bottle of water on a table by the door. I cue my pack with, Enough (Which means stop what they are doing like barking) Back, if a doggie comes into the no dog area. Sit and Stay. Then I answer the door. Hint I always lock the screen door when I am home. I don't want anyone to go pass that boundary uninvited. I rarely have to squirt anyone with the water. They know Back means back. Hope this helps.

| Maggie is 3 yrs old and still piddles some when she's excited, but even moreso if she's scared. It is not as bad as it used to be, but she still does it some.

| Bentley just started doing this and he's 13 weeks. It's embarrassing when new people come and he pees on them. I've read to ignore them until they've calmed down like people have mentioned and it seems to be working. |
