Marking is an extremly strong instinct and this is going to lead to a very unhappy, frustrated owner and a very scared yorkie. You must likely will have to use belly bands at all times especially if you breed him. Most stud dog do have to wear them at all times due to their constant marking. I would seriously perhaps think if you can not stop with the rubbing of his nose in it, or using negative punishments that maybe you should think to rehome him. All the best. |
I think I'm prepared to keep him in a belly band forever over the marking. There won't be punishment for the marking, because I view that as waaaaay different. When it comes to stuff like that over sexual stuff no dog can learn different. You just have to prevent the pee from getting everywhere. Simply squatting and peeing is done for a different reason in most cases. Please tell me if I'm wrong on that though. Tonight he peed because he had to pee, not because he didn't want another male dog to infringe on his territory.
He's marked her whole apartment and my girlfriend either really didn't know about it or was so embarrassed to have me bring it up that she lied to me about it. He's marked most of her furniture.
