He is put in his crate when I'm not home. I am trying to see if I can train this out of him since neutering does not guarantee the behavior will stop and I genuinely believe this is a behavioral habit.
In the mean time, I don't want the behavior reinforced by smells which remain because I wasn't aware they were there to clean - if that makes sense! |
A friend of mine's dog was neutered and he stopped but my dog isn't and after that one time realized his mama was crazy and stopped
. I think it just depends on the dog and how you go about rectifying the behavior. I always use the baking soda and vinegar mixture when having puppies and it seems to work. Also, I have a carpet deep cleaning machine. How old is he?
