I sympathize with you. I have a male that is a year and a half and he marks everything! I finally had to start putting the belly bands on him all the time he is in the house. He marks my garbage can, furniture, door frames, etc. His worst thing though was shoes! Once he peed on my sons backpack! Anything that carries in a new scent. So, the belly bands came out before I lost my mind. I know this is a natural instict, and some people say that when they get neutered it gets better but others say it does not. I think it depends on how long they actually wait before having it done. You know once the dog has been going in the house for so long it becomes a learned behavior and you would probably have to start housetraining all over again. Good luck and let us know how it goes. Oh and just as a thought, my son's male never did mark even before he was neutered, but he had a testicle that did not descend? It's possible that had something to do with it?? |
