Ladymom, do you have suggestions for breaking the marking habit? if so please do shoot them my way. Gucci has started doing this and I do not want to resort to belly bands

he's only been doing it for about 2 weeks maybe 3. I do not want him neutered, he has been health tested so far and seems to be a good breeding candidate at this time and I really want to breed him once to keep a baby from him in the future, however, I WANT THIS ISSUE FIXED.
Original Poster - I agree if he is marking the behavior needs to be broken but unfortunately I am in the same boat as you and cannot hand out suggestions besides catching him in the act and FIRMLY telling him NO! and moving him where he needs to be, Sometimes this works with my baby and he marks on the pad instead

so maybe I am doing something right. HOWEVER, I feel I do need more help and it will take more work.
Hope it works out for you.
