I've heard that for markers, using a vinegar water solution on the still wet spot will remove the smell that encourages marking... and I've heard of using the spray to encourage pottying in the spot you choose. Has anyone had success with this?
My roommate of 3 years has a Yorkie (that I've "adopted" as my own.
If my roommate ever moves out, I"ll be up for puppy-napping charges) - male, not neutered, and he does mark some but only outdoors. I wasn't around for his first year much (he's four) so as I'm considering a "second" I'm also asking some of the questions posted in the original feed (personality type, boy vs. girl, potty/crate training, free feed vs schedule, etc). "My" guy sorta rules the roost (he really doesn't listen to my roommate very well anymore, mainly to me - see he IS my guy!
) - sleeps in the bed, sits in my lap, free feeds, etc so I'm not sure how he'd be with another one. BUT we had a visitor yorkie for a couple nights once, and the other guy was much more dominant so mine did appear to be more submissive (also with big dogs) but then I worry that my guy won't ever get to eat or will feel left out.
