Each boy is different. But you can open Pandora's box when you decide to breed them. A male who has been housetrained mey decide to lift /hike his leg on everything and anything in the house once used for breeding. A male who has been used for breeding may decide to fight with other males in the household that were once his friends. Each fella reacts to being used for breeding in a unique way. There is no book that you can read or no way of knowing what his reaction will be and behavior changes.
You must be prepared to love his just as much after you use him for breeding as before. What hurts my heart is when a loved boy will loose his home because of changes that his owner can not accept. He did not ask to be used for breeding his owner chose that for him.
I use piddle pads in the house-but place a block of wood on several of them so the guys have something to hike the legs on works well they can have piddle contests. My pee pots who still want to piddle on things wear a belly band.
